An Australia-wide telecommunications business officially opened its newest branch at Emerald on Monday, returning to the Central Highlands for the first time in more than six years.
The new Optus store at Central Highlands Marketplace has created four new jobs for locals and provides opportunities for and forms part of the company’s commitment to providing more choice to those in the area.
Garry Clarke, Optus Local Channel & Execution manager for Central Queensland, said he was thrilled to be opening the new store.
“There was a store here about six years ago, but we’ve got stores in Rockhampton and all across Central Queensland and now it’s a return to Emerald,” he said.
