Sarina shoppers will be among the first in Queensland to experience the new Kmart concept store when it opens its doors tomorrow.
The K Hub outlet will officially open to shoppers at 9am after a refurbishment of the former Target store.
The first K Hub stores in Queensland will open on Friday, with outlets in Sarina, Beerwah and Chinchilla the first in the state.
Eight new jobs were created in the transformation from Target to K Hub while 13 of the former Target team members opted for transfers to the new concept outlet.
The K Hub store will carry Kmart’s more popular products across its various lines but will be geared toward the online shopping market.
“We understand that not all of our customers choose to shop online, however we are committed to assisting our customers to help make this process an easier one, with a focus on explaining the attributes and features of Target online, including the accessibility and broad range of products on offer.”
Sarina and Bowen are two towns to receive the new concept K-hub stores where Target once operated.
The spokeswoman said the Bowen store would close at the end of January and re-open as a K-hub on February 3, while Target Sarina closed on January 9 and would re-open at K-hub on January 27.
