Check out the extensive range of hiPP product at newsXpress Harbour Town on the Gold Coast. Sue and the team have been dealing with hiPP already for some time. The space dedicated to the product shows how well the stock turns.
The newsXpress retail group has set up a retail partnership with hiPP so that all stores can benefit from this niche product. No other company does it better than them in the space they operate in. New money continued to flow at newsXpress with bright fashion stationery and boxes capturing a new retail segment for the newsXpress network.
newsXpress GPO is a convenience based business in Creek St Brisbane. Bradley Dean and the team keep adding new money revenue streams to the business to leverage the huge foot traffic that they have during the week.
By providing inspiration to the customers with gifts from newsXpress approved suppliers Compendium and Jasnor, they have increased the cross-selling opportunities to leverage off the great card sales the store is getting. One helps the other grow and sales are very much on the increase in card and gift within the newsXpress network.
Even though Margaret River in WA only has a population of 6,500, they continue to innovate and add new ranges such as the Artee Supplies range.
