AUSTRALIA'S largest discount variety brand officially opened its Queensland distribution centre in Ipswich on Tuesday.
The Reject Shop, which has 196 stores across the country, will operate its newest warehouse from Bundamba's Citiswitch Business Park.
The Reject Shop managing director Chris Bryce said the $16 million investment was the cornerstone of the company's future growth.
"Ipswich was a logical location for our new distribution centre because of its strong labour market and strategic location on road networks, providing us the opportunity to service stores from metropolitan Sydney through to Queensland," Mr Bryce said.
"We expect the number of people employed at our Ipswich centre to grow to up to 150 as the number of stores serviced grows from 90 stores to our 200-store capacity."
