Also based in South Australia, Bella Build & Design already had extensive experience constructing fuel stations and convenience stores and, just as importantly, had developed a close professional relationship with X Convenience. So their well-established partnership was guaranteed to produce another development success when Ecorp Project Management initiated its own plans to develop a site the company owned in Alkimos for a new commercial project. It was X Convenience’s first fuel station and store in Western Australia, and Ecorp commissioned Bella Build & Design to undertake the construction project. Prominent and central to the Alkimos town centre, the building and site layout were orientated to engage most effectively with The Gateway local shopping precinct and social hub, while also providing convenient traffic access on Marmion Avenue. Developed by Ecorp, The Gateway project consists of seven development stages incorporating medical, childcare and child play centres, an IGA and speciality shops, a food and restaurant precinct, a gymnasium and a tavern. Within the overall precinct, X Convenience now provides clients with both fuel and a diverse and extensive range of retail products.
