Volume 15 May 2016 - Sourcing Bali News

Dear Friends,

It's my pleasure to once again bring you the latest news from Sourcing Bali and our supplier partners. 

I am embarrassed to say that this is the first newsletter of 2016 - where has the year gone?.  I am pleased to say that we have been wonderfully busy with lots of new projects and working with many regular customers for their repeat orders.

In this edition of SB News, we're reporting on some recently completed orders, some updates on the crew, some news of currency exchange rates and general bits and peices about Bali.

As always, I take this opportunity to thank you for your ongoing and wonderful support - Sourcing Balil, now in it's 16th year continues to be Bali's Leading Sourcing and Buying agency.

Please let us know how we can assist you with your forthcoming needs.

Warmest regards,

Desmond

Recent Project (Private home)

We were very proud to be called upon by clients George and Marie Noicos of Adelaide to assist them with the furniture for their new home. 

The diverse range of items included indoor and outdoor furniture, artwork, lighting and accessories.  The designs were complex and detailed.  They included combined finished of lacquer and timber - and the results were terrific.

The orders took over 2 months to design / plan and 2 months for production.  The container is finally on it's way to Adelaide and we look forward to posting updates once the installation is completed. 

This is a perfect example of how Sourcing Bali can assist with customised designs for private or commercial installations.  If you're in need of any design assistance, please let us know and we will be happy to help.

New Project - Vomo Island Resort - Fiji

Sourcing Bali was once again selected to assist with the refubishment of VOMO Island Resort, Fiji. 

The second phase of this project included the indoor and outdoor furniture for two of their luxury residences.  It was an exciting project with lots of customised designs and an interesting assortment of decorative art peices. 

Sadly the island was severely hit by recent cyclones and is closed for further repairs until September - we are just now working on additional orders to replace the damages from the storm.  I look forward to sharing further updates on this beautiful property later in the year.


 

 

Ongoing refurbishment - Tokoriki Island Resort

One of our longest clients recently called on us to assist with the latest phase of their ongoing upgrade.  This project included a stunning refit of their lobby, dining room and bar.  

The main feature of the design were two STUNNING wood carved panels - 6m in height - to adorn the lobby and bar entrances.  The installation has just been completed and they POP !   Everyone is delighted with them and that makes us happy campers.  

 

New Project - North Bali

We were delighted to be called upon my the team at DYNASTY to design and supply interior and exterior furnishings for their new GLAM TENT resort in Menjangan National Park in North Bali.
