Mitre 10 grand opening H

orsham’s new multi-million-dollar Mitre 10 store will have its grand opening on Saturday and provide a chance for customers to cash in on a variety of specials and prizes.

The official opening of the McPherson Street store, representing a $5-million to $6-million investment for Horsham, will feature a guest visit by television personality and host of The Block Scott Cam. Mitre 10 has been trading from its new site since shifting from Wilson Street earlier in the year but this weekend represents a formal opening of the new centre. Owner Chris Jones said his first memory of working in hardware was in the store owned by his mother and father. “I couldn’t reach the pad

bolt to open the door into the timber yard,” he said. “Hardware runs in our blood. All seven siblings have worked with dad and mum at some point – they own both Ararat and Stawell Mitre 10 stores, flagships for the brand, with my brother Simon. “We love hardware and are passionate about customer service and ‘getting it right’. Mr Jones said with more than 30 years of involvement in the hardware business, he would be able to answer most questions. He added that Mitre 10 was a ‘hugely successful’ business with more than 400 independently owned stores, starting out with just 10 members about 50 years ago. “Our shift from Wilson Street to McPherson Street has enabled us to provide a complete shopping experience, providing everything you need

for the home and garden,” he said. “Horsham Mitre 10 has an extensive range that includes giftware-homeware and a substantial array of garden supplies from plants to fertilisers, with much more to come storewide. “My team and I, a group of more than 20 people, work seven days a week, helping everyone from painters, builders, brickies, plasterers and landscapers to DIY and retail customers. We’re proud to welcome you all to our new store, with more products and services available than ever before.” Mr Jones said a Mighty Rewards Cards scheme would start soon, offering points and discounts based on money spent at Horsham Mitre 10. “Some of the other exciting services we offer include a five-days-a-week
