New-look Savemore reopens on Tuesday THE new-look Savemore Centre will open on Tuesday, December 1, . at a cost to Denhams Bros. Ltd of almost $5 million. Denham Bros. Ltd managing diector Ron Smyth said the date had `"-'been something to aim at when renovations started in June and now, months later, work would be completed on schedule. Final cost to Denhams was unknown this week, but Mr Smyth said "there wouldn't be much change out of S5 million". The months of work have been a major topic of conversation on the Coast and the shopping public will get its chance to see the result on Tuesday from 8.30am. It will be an impressive shopping centre. Despite the scaffolding, the building materials, the tools, the tradesmen, the noise and the dust, the new look has been showing through. The malls are the most impressive. There's new floor tiles, new, soft lighting, warm, inviting colours on the ceiling and a feeling of class. This isn't a cold, clinical shopping centre designed to separate shoppers from their dollars. Savemore is charming and inviting. As the work has progressed, enthusiasm has grown. Grumbles about noise have been replaced with comments on the interior touches ... the colour scheme and the skylight. The skylight is a natural addition to a tropical shopping centre. The blue of the sky complements the autumn tones in the shopping mall. While Savemore has only been renovated and extended, there is a efinite new look to the whole complex. There's more parking on three sides of the complex ... twice as much with 222 spaces within the grounds and a further 39 outside. And shoppers can drive in on one side, and around the carpark and out the other side. "There's no more reversing or fiddling around," Mr Smyth said. "Shoppers can drive around until they find the spot they want." There's three entrances and a new mall ... a bigger supermarket and a total of 26 specialty shops and a bank inside. The enlarged complex has something to crow about ... it's the biggest of the 16 Denhams centres. And, being the biggest, it also represents an impressive slice of the

public company's investment dollar. To extend Savemore, Denhams had to buy it back. The company had earlier sold the complex and become a tenant in the centre it developed. When it wanted to extend, it had to buy it back. The freehold complex was then renovated and modified to its present state.

This latest development is proof of Denhams' commitment to the Capricorn Coast. Mr Smyth this week paid tribute to the Denhams board of directors for their faith in both the Coast and the Savemore complex. He said buying back Savemore was a big step ... but there were distinct as flexible as we like," he said.
