In 2015, GETC Commercial was awarded the entire FF&E contract on $47 million Victoria University Student Accommodation project by ADCO Constructions
The awarded works included the manufacture and supply of all joinery & furniture throughout the entire 12 storey complex. The architect—Nettleton Tribe—specified a range of different kitchen configurations, wardrobes, bedding, seating, desks, loose furniture, shelving, blinds and all other loose–fit FF&E requirements.
The Victoria University project was the first time ADCO had engaged the services of a dedicated ‘China Direct’ supplier on such a large scale.
The Australian office team of GETC Commercial worked closely with ADCO’s project team and the facility’s operator, UniLodge, throughout the process to ensure the smoothest possible delivery and installation.

Over 50 40ft’ containers were delivered to GETC Commercials dedicated Melbourne warehousing & dispatch facility. From this point, our local Commercial Project Team worked with ADCO and the installation crews to manage all placement & portage within the building.
Careful planning and scheduling was critical throughout the manufacturing and project delivery phases—with all items being packed in individual export cartons and labelled according to room number and associated tracking detail.
All GETC Commercial office staff had input on this project with Senior Engineer, Huafeng Li driving the product element, QA & compliance locally.
“With a large team of QA and production control, the job of actually manufacturing the products is quite simple. The technical team and I spend most of our time and resources working with the client and production managers to ensure correct specification, and the most efficient staging, delivery and process management. We are very proud of our work with ADCO and Victoria University”—Huafeng Li, Senior Engineer
