Our members enjoyed an informative presentation from Paul Reynolds, Managing Director of CCI Services, who provided valuable insights into the organisation’s history, operations and future outlook. CCI Services will celebrate its 50th anniversary in 2026, having evolved from very modest beginnings. The organisation began in the mid-1970s at Lentara House in Magill, coincidentally located opposite where Paul Reynolds lived at the time. The early concept emerged when some parts of the Adelaide Central Methodist Mission realised that by combining their purchasing needs they could negotiate significantly better prices from suppliers. This simple but powerful idea became the foundation of what is now CCI Services. RCMS Bulletin 1316
