Petone’s Warehouse Stationery has reopened following a complete refurbishment.

The modern new look includes a much-improved layout, new signage, a copy centre area and a dedicated ‘fashionery’ section.

Warehouse Stationery general manager of operations Paul Gianotti said that the company is thrilled to be showcasing its refreshed store, and is confident that it will meet the demands of customers.

The store will also cater for local businesses and students with its state of the art print and copy centre, Andrew Smith, Warehouse Stationery store manager, said.

In The Warehouse Group’s recently released report the company stated that the rebranding of the Warehouse Stationery stores with the ‘Work, Study, Create, Connect’ positioning has helped to drive growth.

Over the past year three news stores have opened, with a total of 64 stores nationwide.

Warehouse Stationery sales showed an increase of 8.1 per cent compared to last year, said the company in its FY14 financial report.
