Sarah McNally, MD of Memorandum Limited, was searching for an answer to solve the problem of finding a toner supplier who offered ethical products at realistic prices. Having tested numerous third-party remanufactured brands, Sarah eventually came across Jet Tec; a company who could offer a solution to branding and pricing as well as reinforcing her company philosophy about the importance of being environmentally friendly. Sarah embarked on testing with selected customers as well as trialling the products herself, and was impressed with the results, as she states; ‘the proof of the pudding is in the eating!’
Having previously bought inkjet cartridges from Jet Tec, Sarah was aware of their reputation for quality, and made the decision to become a reseller and, in addition, decided go down the own brand route.
In time, a stylish, memorable design was created, embellishing the Memorandum philosophy:
“We aim to offer a total solution for all office needs, whilst raising valuable funds for those who need a little help from the rest of us and at the same time, considering our environment.”
Sarah started her career at Work Twice and has continued her belief of selling commercially (as opposed to retail) combined with a streamlined low cost stockless operation. With Jet Tec own brand toner there are no minimum orders and third-party next day delivery is available.
In 2012 Memorandum were awarded ‘Office Point Recycler of the Year’, and their contribution to the charity sector continues to be significant. The company makes a 5% contribution to the Roy Castle Lung Cancer Charity for every sale of remanufactured toners, and donates up to £2 to charity for each empty toner that is collected and recycled and since the start of Memorandum over £70,000 has been donated to this and the Rainbow Centre.
The Memorandum & Jet Tec partnership is going from strength to strength and is offering a sustainable solution to consumers who are both environmentally aware and interested in cost saving.
