R & L Merlino started off as a small family business in 1980 with the selling of Marcel Bruer Chairs in the Perth marketplace. In 18 months the business had progressed to the purchase of their first warehouse, the employment of staff and the expansion of the furniture range imported from Italy. With this plan in action Ross Merlino was able to expand his clientele Australia wide.

Over the next few years the company had excelled in growth throughout Australia. Ross Merlino and his brother Aldo Merlino ventured into Sydney in 1989, with the opening of Merlino Furniture Imports. Sydney's operation is again a credit to its success and has moved and expanded over the time to handle the increased sales.

During this period Mr Ross Merlino formed a buying group known as The "Global Group of Companies". This group consisted of Artemis Imports (Queensland), Merlino Furniture Imports Pty Limited (Sydney), Collage (New Zealand) and Merlino Furniture (Perth - Head Office). With the Group formed, they were able to buy competitively, have a larger database to source new products and in turn dominate the Australasian market.

With continuing success, Merlino Furniture Perth, relocated in 1999 to a specialized warehouse and showroom (66000sq feet) and is a major player in the Perth wholesale market. The Global Group of Companies is now importing between 1000 - 1500 containers per year, from countries all around the world. We currently have offices in Italy and Philippines and are exclusive agents for such companies as Alf , Nicoletti and Lao.
