About Us.

Sheather & Merrigan Business Equipment was established in 1979 by the current owner Phil Merrigan and John Sheather (now retired). During this period of nearly 30 years, our company has only represented the one brand. That brand is Canon.
Sheather & Merrigan has grown to become one of Canon Australia’s largest and most respected regional Business Partners. Our customers cover a wide variety of the business community from government, education, mining, manufacturing, to retail and agriculture.

Sheather & Merrigan employ some thirty full-time staff. We are proud of the fact that many of our staff are long-term employees and have been with us for as long as 20 years. This puts us in an enviable position of holding a substantial bank of knowledge and experience, which is represented to our customers in the form of quality service.

The regions we cover with the very popular Canon products are; Newcastle, Hunter Valley and the Central Coast with our head office being located in our purpose built premises at Wickham. To better support our Central Coast customers, we also built an office at West Gosford in 2005.

In early 2007 we welcomed to the Sheather & Merrigan Group an IT & Networking company, called Newcastle OnSite IT. This was a necessary transition due to the rapid change from traditional office equipment into the ever-changing world
of digital technology.
