For the past 100 years Flick Anticimex has been protecting people's greatest assets – their home.
Flick is a company that’s known across the country because we have a hundred-year history of bringing innovation to the market and making this world a safer place.
- Pacific Region president Guido Toepfer
November 6 saw the teams across the country celebrate to commence the hundredth anniversary of the Flick name.
More than 1000 employees celebrated the day in forty branches and depots across Australia.
Central to the celebrations was the introduction of a new Flick 100 Years logo and Flick 100 promotion for residential customers.
“A hundred years is quite an achievement in any country and I’m very proud to be part of this company,” Pacific Region president Guido Toepfer.
“Flick is a company that’s known across the country because we have a hundred-year history of bringing innovation to the market and making this world a safer place. We’ve been protecting families and their most valuable assets from destruction.
“I believe we can easily do another hundred years and I look forward to celebrating the next birthday.”
