Doors officially re-opened on Saturday at the Park Beach Plaza store, following the completion of $10 million expansion works.

The new concept store is 40% larger, has an expanded range of groceries and liquor and also sees significant changes to the car park area.

General Manager of the Bachrach Naumburger Group, Steve Gooley, said the continued growth of our region and the popularity of Aldi have created a demand for a larger format store, despite uncertain times.

“I am very confident that the effects of Covid-19 have started to decrease and I’m very proud that The Bachrach Naumburger Group has been able to continue on with works during this difficult period,” Mr Gooley said.

“We have kept a lot of trades and businesses very busy during this time.”

The Aldi upgrade works have been timed to complement the $4m Western Mall Entry works nearing completion, with a number of new retailers opening in the coming months.

Loca contractors involved in the project include FM Glenn Construction plus Contractors de Groot & Benson Pty Ltd, Ray Ellicott Concreting, Pearce Engineering, Phoenix Metal Roofing, KBS Mackay, Fine Form Precast Solutions, Rooney Glass, Nambucca Plumbing, O’Brien Electrical, and AJ Civil Projects.

“It was only last year that Woolworths completed an extensive refurbishment at their Park Beach Plaza store,” Mr Gooley said.

“These two supermarket giants are not only showing great faith in Park Beach Plaza but in the strength of Coffs Harbour as a thriving and developing city.”
