About us

We are a family that lives in the suburb of Truganina in Melbourne, the capital city of the state of Victoria in Australia.  Some of our many and varied interests have been developed into business activities that we engage in.  We have been listed on the Australian Business Register since 28 April 2000 as a Sole Trader - our ABN is 80 677 967 571.  For a period of approximately two years from 23 October 2007, we operated our business activities under our own company - MPTM Button Pty. Ltd.
