One of the most highly-anticipated stores in Queenstown will finally open its doors this month. The Aussie-headquarterd business first applied to council in April, 2017, to build its first Queenstown store on the 1.6-hectare site. But commissioners declined that in March, 2018, leading Bunnings to appeal the decision to the Environment Court. Bunnings Queenstown complex manager Liam Dawson says doors to the store, four years in the making, will open this month. Bunnings Queenstown complex manager Liam Dawson, who’s moved down from Blenheim, says staff are "buzzing" about finally opening the doors.
