International schools

Over the past three decades, school books have played a big role in what we do. But while books are of great importance, we realize that schools have requirements for other products as well. In recent years we have developed a strong body of specialist expertise in handling the requirements of international schools, particularly:

Handling orders for (non-book) educational materials and resources:
Direct contact with the suppliers can be difficult, particularly at a distance. Prepayment is often required, and subsequent deliveries can be slow and erratic. Mallory has built up strong relationships with the major suppliers, and can make sure your requirements are met with the minimum of difficulties.

Selection support, particularly in books, but also for other materials:
This can be in the form of bibliographies, tailored to customer requirements, which we can produce, in house; or it can be a consolidation service for third party catalogues.

What our schools customers say...

‘A personal touch… and completely professional’

I particularly like the personal touch to their otherwise completely professional approach… Mallory international Ltd is one of the best companies I have ever worked with.

What our customers are saying...

‘A personal touch… and completely professional’

Braeburn Schools are a growing group of international schools in Kenya. As the schools in the group all follow the British curriculum, we buy the majority of our books and education equipment from UK.

As a resource manager for this group, I have tried various methods of getting everything the schools need. I have personally approached and dealt with different companies on an individual basis. I have also tried buying things through local agents in Kenya.

I was introduced to Mallory International Ltd via a mutual friend in 2006. I quickly discovered how much easier my job became when I was able to use such an efficient supplier.

The advantages of using Mallory are many. Everything is extremely well packed so always arrives undamaged. The boxes are clearly labeled and the supporting paperwork is easy to follow and very informative.

Throughout the whole ordering process I am kept fully informed so that I am always able to tell the schools when their goods will arrive or why they won’t. An example of this is if a book is no longer in print I will be informed. I am kept in constant email contact at every stage and any questions I may have are immediately answered.

I particularly like the personal touch to their otherwise completely professional approach. I have been visited in Kenya and any suggestions or requests I have subsequently made have always been followed up. Mallory are continually looking for ways to improve and I feel my ideas are valued and I also feel that the company has my best interests at heart. If they know a cheaper way to get an ordered item, they will use it even though it may mean extra work on their behalf. And if a book is no longer available, they will research and inform me of suggested alternatives.

I am under constant pressure to order items through local agents who keep offering ‘special deals’. However I have no intention of changing as I find Mallory international Ltd is one of the best companies I have ever worked with.

What our customers are saying...

‘Reliable, prompt, courteous’

I am most pleased to recommend the services of Mallory International with whom we have been associated for three years now. We order the bulk of our textbooks and workbooks through them as well as physical education equipment, nursery supplies and science equipment. We were particularly pleased that they were able to source and supply for us materials as diverse as lawnmowers, whiteboards, lockers and power tools.

We find Mallory to be very price competitive, reliable, prompt, courteous and efficient. We hope that our IB school of 1,450 students will have a long association with them. They know educational supplies, they know shipping and they know Africa.

I recommend Mallory International without hesitation.

What our customers are saying...

‘A great service’

I was recruited to set up and open a new international school in the north of Malawi in April this year. This meant that we had to have our order of text books, science and sports equipment, musical instruments and stationery delivered to our door in record time to be ready for the start of September.

The greatest convenience for us was that we did not have to mess around and lose time with different suppliers for different resources. Mallory International did it all! Where books were not available, we were advised on suitable alternatives and where cheaper items of the same quality were available, we were informed. Rachel even managed to obtain a copy of an out-of-print Teacher’s Resource Pack for our Science programme-very impressive!

The bulk of what we ordered arrived in good time, in good condition and at the prices that we expected. We opened the school on time with everything in place all thanks to Mallory International. A great service and one that we’ll stick with.
