Ossie O is a local family run manufacturing business owned and managed by Simon Shipman and his wife Sharon. Simon Shipman is the developer of the Ossie O products. The business operates as a manufacturing wholesale and retail operation. Ossie O has expanded to a team of 24 and has a growing local client base on the Coffs Coast. During late 2017 and 2018, Ossie O established a network of 30 distributors across Australia.

The company manufactures locally and distributes to all parts of Australia. Ossie O manufactures and installs all outdoor screening products that protect outdoor areas from sun, insects, weather and for privacy. Zipslide retractable screen screens bi folding and stacking glass doors, garages, patios and balconies, and was developed and manufactured locally.

Professionalism from the first measure-up through to the completed installation is the thread that runs through this feedback, with Craig praised for the care taken during measuring and quoting and Sonny and Charlie noted for their attention to detail at fit-out. Several customers describe the process as seamless, mentioning that communication continued before and after the job and that the finished result matched expectations. Simon is frequently named for overseeing projects and for responding quickly when problems arose, including a speedy return visit and repair on a screen that needed attention.

The quality of the finished screens, roll-down blinds and motorised awnings comes in for consistent praise, covering both residential and commercial work, and retractable zipslide screens for bi-fold doors and custom roll-away awnings are singled out more than once. A theme running through the feedback is the speed of the whole operation, from quote to completed job. Sharon and the showroom staff are mentioned warmly for their help with initial enquiries, and several clients note they had already specified these products on their own projects before choosing them for a private residence.
