The $17 million Bunnings Warehouse in Kingaroy will officially open late next month.<\/p>\n

The company confirmed on Thursday that more than 65 residents were now official “team members” of the store.<\/p>\n

Complex manager Chris Carter, who has been a part of the Bunnings team for 13 years, said team members had already been out and about in the community.<\/p>\n

\u201cTeam members have been supporting community groups already, including lending a hand to the Kingaroy Red Ants to support their new kitchenette installation, as well as hosting an employment and training workshop at the Kingaroy Clontarf Academy,” Chris said.<\/p>\n

He said the team had also helped to renovate local QCWA rooms, including replanting garden beds, replacing roller blinds and repainting the stairs, deck and ramp areas.<\/p>\n

\u201cBunnings is always looking for opportunities to contribute to local causes and we look forward to continuing to support community groups in Kingaroy and the local area with hands-on projects in the future,\u201d Chris said.<\/p>\n

\u201cBunnings provides a wide range of meaningful career development options for all team members, and I\u2019m confident our new recruits will relish the opportunity to learn and grow with us.\u201d<\/p>\n

And yes … there’ll be sausage sizzles.<\/p>\n

Chris said the Kingaroy store would provide ongoing support to community groups to raise funds for a variety of causes by hosting Bunnings’ famous sausage sizzles.<\/p>\n
