BALLARAT BOOKS, WARRNAMBOOL BOOKS AND LINK EDUCATIONAL REBRAND AS CAMPION EDUCATION

Announcement posted by Campion Education 29 Jun 2020

Following The Campion Group’s acquisition of these Victorian businesses last year, Campion Education has announced a rebranding of Ballarat Books, Warrnambool Books and Link Educational. The acquisition comes as part of Campion Education's expansion plans

The Campion Group continues to focus its strategy on growth, increasing its presence across Australia significantly over the last 5 years. Campion Education continues to focus on its core purpose of partnering with schools to help simplify the back-to-school process for their teachers, parents, and students each year, with substantial growth in digital and eBook services over time.

It will be business as usual with Campion Education continuing to serve Ballarat Books, Warrnambool Books and Link Educational customers from four retail locations across Victoria including; Sebastopol, Federation University Ballarat, Warrnambool and Glen Waverley. The store in Armstrong St, Ballarat will be relocated to the Sebastopol location.

Managing Director James Cathro said Campion Education was “excited to join forces with these three Victorian businesses and work towards uniting our strengths, learning from their successes and incorporating some of Campion Education’s market leading technology and 23 years’ experience in the education industry”.

“We are pleased to have such a large number of excellent people joining us from these businesses who will provide a wealth of knowledge and experience in these markets, and assist us to merge our businesses, while continuing to support and serve our customers in the best way we can,” he said.

Business changes will include the introduction of Campion Education’s market leading suite of digital services, assisting schools and students in determining and fulfilling their educational needs each year, combined seamlessly with their required physical books and stationery.
