About Abacus
The Beginning:
Abacus was formed in 1981 to provide a specialised need in Small Office and Home Office requirements. From humble beginnings, Abacus has grown in size, as well as reputation; to be Western Australia’s biggest privately owned Technology Company. Abacus now serves customers all across Australia, providing exceptional technology solutions from coast to coast. Abacus can proudly boast that our company is 100% WA owned and operated.
Starting out with just two employees and a small product range consisting of calculators and facsimile machines, Abacus have expanded their product line up to include the full range of Sharp Digital Photocopiers, fax machines and printers, and is an authorised dealer for OKI, Kyocera and HP products.
We now employ over 50 Australians to service our community.
Presently:
Abacus has been in operation for over 40-years and to ensure and guarantee our future growth we have wisely placed our eggs in many baskets. To make certain all of our products are handled properly and efficiently, Abacus as a whole is divided into smaller, more manageable entities.
We are the largest supplier of school calculators in Australia and to become the biggest in school calculators you need to sell more than just the product; you have to sell a service!
Our School Calculator Division supplies and supports educational materials such as resource books, videos and software that aid the teachers and students to make the most of their choice of calculators. Furthermore, we offer a 2-year warranty as opposed to the customary 1-year warranty offered by our competitors.

This further endorses our commitment to service and general customer satisfaction. In addition, we have service centres in all states ensuring national coverage for businesses
Giving back to the Community
Business is not just about making profits. To judge the true quality of a company you have to look deeper and see if that company puts anything back into the community, it gives you an indication of the character of the people who own, run and work for the company. Abacus proudly supports many worthwhile organisations like: The Lions Club of WA, World Vision, Australian Red Cross, Canteen Cancer Foundation, Activ Foundation, Ronald McDonald House Charities, Jurien Bay Volunteer Rescue Groups, Stubbs Tce Hospital, Carawarratha Language Development Centre and many, many more.
