Description
The Dymocks Group is a privately owned company and owner of the iconic Dymocks Books business which has been trading continuously since 1879. The business is owned by John Forsyth AM, the grand nephew of the original William Dymock who founded Dymocks in Sydney in 1879.

Since its humble beginnings in 1879 the Group has grown to encompass five distinct business divisions:
1. Bookselling through Dymocks Books 2. Stationery wholesaling and retailing through Telegram Group 3. Farming through Arapala Macadamia Farms 4. Property investment through Dymocks Properties 5. Education through Dymocks Tutoring and Dymocks Training
