OutdoorKing Repair Forum Forums The History Forum Company Histories MARINO PRODUCTS - Who Were They?

Move to Barry Parade, Fortitude Valley.
The company clearly outgrew its original CBD premises in Creek Street.
I can't believe that the Creek Street premises were ever a factory.

I do not know where it was manufacturing its pump components from,
but my best guess is that Dowling had his factory at the Brisbane suburb of Bulimba.
That site would, much later, become head office and showroom.

So, Marino Products moved into 'commodious premises' at 119 Barry Parade,
just on the CBD fringe at Fortitude Valley.





It was at 'The Valley' (as locals call it) that Marino Products expanded their range.
This was a two story building on the corner of Gotha Street and Barry Parade.
Below is the only photograph I have been able to find of their showroom and factory.
On the awning can be made out 'Products Pty. Ltd.' and 'Chapman Pup'.
