After exactly three years since the Coles Group submitted a development application to the Brisbane City Council, Coles Supermarket Kedron finally opened last Saturday, the 30th of September. Coles Kedron has an in-store bakery, a gourmet delicatessen with olive bar and cheese wall, an open-style butchery, and 200 car park spaces.
On top of that, the Coles Kedron complex also features three surrounding specialty stores — Coles Express, Liquorland, and Coffee Guru.
Coles Express
Opening Hours: 4:00 a.m. – midnight
The complex in Kedron now has Coles Express. As one of Australia’s leading fuel and convenience retailers, Coles Express is a one-stop shop to fill up your cars and shop everyday value groceries, snacks, and drinks.
ADCO Constructions, the builders, and Gilbarco, the fuel system contractor, made the Coles Express construction possible. Switch, a multidisciplinary project group specialising in Fuel and Design Management and Clean Energy, provided the Fuel System Designs, Fuel System Inspections, and Design Management for this site.
Just like their other branches, Coles Express Kedron is a proud partner of the Cancer Council Australia, an organisation that focuses on researching about different types of cancer. Coles Express also supports Red Dust and its mission to promote good health to the indigenous youth of Australia.
Liquorland
Opening Hours:
| Monday | 10:00 a.m. – 7:00 p.m. |
| Tuesday – Wednesday | 9:00 a.m. – 8:00 p.m. |
| Thursday – Saturday | 9:00 a.m. – 9:00 p.m. |
| Sunday | 9:00 a.m. – 6:00 p.m. |
Another specialty store surrounding the Coles Kedron is Liquorland. As one of Australia’s largest alcohol stores, Liquorland Kedron will stock a wide range of imported wines, beers, ciders, Champagne, spirits, and premixed drinks.
Liquorland Kedron is one of the few stores in Queensland that are adjacent to Coles Supermarket. The opening of Liquorland Kedron also marked more job opportunities in the Kedron community area.
Coffee Guru
Opening Hours: 7:00 a.m. – 9:00 p.m.
Coffee Guru is now in Kedron! This is the cafe that everyone’s curious about. Although Coffee Guru is a chain of cafes across Australia, each store is independently owned and managed by a member of the local community.
As a new addition to Kedron’s coffee scene, Coffee Guru promises a Premium Blend coffee that is bold, but not bitter. More than just the coffee, their homemade sweets and breakfast are also great come-ons for the members of community who are eager to try something new. Coffee Guru gave out free coffee for everyone on the 7th of October.
More Activities to Follow
Coles Kedron extended their opening activities on Saturday, the 7th of October with a community BBQ, free ice cream, face painting, balloon twisting, and some mini competitions. Coles will continue hosting fun activities for the community in the coming days.
“We’re also keen to get our community barbecues up and running, which will give local organisations the opportunity to hold a sausage sizzle at the store on weekends and raise funds for their school, sporting team or special cause,” Coles Kedron Store Manager Andrew Jensen.
