St. Merkorious Charity is pleased to announce the commissioning of its builder, being DASCO Australia Pty Ltd, for the long awaited fit-out of the New Food Distribution Facility at 121 Cosgrove Road, South Strathfield 2136, NSW Australia.
Our official sod turning ceremony was held on Thursday 19 June 2025 with the commencement of construction now taking place.
DASCO will be constructing our new premises and this will comprise three levels. The ground floor will incorporate a new kitchen, food storage, food preparation, packing, and washing areas. The first floor will provide for large hamper packing, training rooms and volunteer areas, staff facilities and amenities. The second floor will accommodate the main office, meeting rooms, all administration rooms and reception area.
The project is targeted to be completed by Christmas 2025.
Donations of goods, money or food are highly appreciated. We’ll distribute it to those who need it most.
