At the newsXpress corporate store at Watergardens we decided to build a purpose built book stand for our new group partnership with Australian Book Wholesalers (ABW). In terms of competition in the book space we forge ahead against Angus & Robertson, Dymocks, and two other major anchor mass merchants in Watergardens Town Centre. Newsagents need not be afraid as initial signs of this new innovation are remarkable with the books attracting a lot of attention and adding another string to the newsXpress bow. Project XLR8 is working well at newsXpress.
