THE IMPORTANT STUFF
JUNE 2024
future expansion
Taipan’s next stage of development has arrived.
We understand continuing to hold enough product and getting it to you is paramount to keeping your customers happy and moving.
Earlier this year, we made the decision to keep Head Office in its original buildings at Caboolture and do our best to secure additional warehouse space nearby.
We are extremely excited to announce we have now done that and have purchased a group of buildings just over 150 metres up the road. The block consists of four buildings totaling 3,200 square metres which we will take over as leases expire.
Two of those are effective on settlement date early July. The acquisition takes Caboolture to a total of 8,000 square metres and ensures we can comfortably grow with our customers as, and when you need it.
Increasing the product is a given but what exactly goes into each building, well that’s a whole other story. Either way we’ll keep you posted!
milestone event
At the end of May, some of our crew got together in Brisbane to celebrate the milestone achievements of five staff members with laughter, amazing food, and heartfelt speeches.
Kelly and Lenaya from Head Office, Shannon from our Caboolture Branch and Rick from our Melbourne Branch all celebrated 5 years of service to Taipan, while Julie from Caboolture celebrated a massive 20 years of service! We’re so lucky to have staff members who believe in who we are as a company and where we’re going! Surrounded by the Middle Eastern decor of Babylon restaurant, we toasted to their dedication and can’t wait to see what their journey ahead brings. Thanks for all your hard work and loyalty to Taipan – Julie, Lenaya, Kelly, Rick & Shannon! Here’s to many more milestones to come, and hopefully tons of great times together!
