We are three independent buying groups, working together to increase purchasing power
CPS Chargeback is the new name for Central Purchasing Services, the hardware and building chargeback operation of our group which originally began in 1980.
Today, CPS Chargeback continues to be the go-to buying group for independent hardware, building supplies and rural stores, supported further by its strategic alignment with Natbuild.
One of the key features that sets CPS Chargeback apart is its central billing facility, allowing members to purchase from multiple suppliers on a single billing account.
TradeSmart is a national buying group that supports independent retailers in the industrial supply sector.
Our members specialise in product categories such as power tools, hand tools, welding equipment, and fasteners - serving tradies, builders, fabricators, and industrial clients across Australia.
TradeSmart’s focus is firmly on the industrial market, where product knowledge, service quality, and supplier relationships make a difference.
We work closely with leading suppliers to secure competitive pricing and terms for our members backed by the strength of collective buying power.
Paint Place is the retail brand of the Paint Buying Group - a network of independent paint and coatings specialists serving both trade and commercial markets across Australia.
Our members supply architectural paints as well as a wide range of technical coatings including automotive, marine, epoxy flooring, mechanical, roofing, and specialist timber finishes.
For members seeking national branding, the Paint Place name offers strong consumer and manufacturer recognition, with access to shared marketing and business support while still allowing stores to retain local ownership and independence.
