Australia Post has opened its newest Community Hub @ Post retail outlet in Noosa Heads, Queensland.
The hub will offer new amenities tailored to the local community. These include the post’s first ever Pups @ Post dog-friendly zone with dedicated dog ‘parking’ and a drinking station, as well as products from local SMEs through Pop Up @ Post and a display of locally made surfboards in a nod to Noosa’s beach lifestyle.
The Noosa Heads Community Hub @ Post will continue to offer customers the full range of existing services, including free 24/7 parcel lockers, banking services through Bank @Post and all parcel and letter mailing services.
Josh Bannister, Australia Post executive general manager, retail, brand and marketing, commented, “The Noosa Heads Community Hub @ Post, our first Community Hub in Queensland, is designed not only as a service point but as a dynamic community space. The modern design, with unique local elements, celebrates Noosa’s vibrant lifestyle and we are excited to offer both enhanced services and a fresh community experience that reflects the spirit of this iconic coastal town.”
Adding to the hub’s local feel, contemporary Indigenous artist Zartisha Davis has created a custom art mural that is displayed prominently on the side of the Community Hub building. The artwork celebrates Noosa’s rich cultural heritage and incorporates symbols of community, celebration and gathering.
Australia Post will continue rolling out its Community Hubs, with the next opening in Williamstown, Victoria, in the coming months. It already has locations in Burnie, Tasmania and Orange, New South Wales.
