The new Melton Homemaker Centre will officially open its doors on Saturday, December 7 with a ribbon cutting and family fun day.
An opening ceremony for the 50,000-square metre site at 2290-2296 Melton Highway, Melton, will be held at 9.30am, with representatives of joint developers MHG and Harvey Norman, as well as Melton mayor Steve Abboushi.
The family fun day will feature a range of attractions for the whole family, including Triple M Rock Patrol, face painting, balloon artist, sausage sizzle, giveaways, and an early appearance by Santa Claus.
Cr Abboushi said this centre will provide a boost for the economy of Melton and create more local jobs.
“It will also provide families in the area with a superb amenity, and everything they need for their homes,” he said.
Anchor tenant Harvey Norman has opened a 7000-square metre large format retail store which is complemented by a quality mix of nationally recognised retail brands.
Harvey Norman head of asset management Michael Read said the company is very excited to have opened its latest store in Melton.
“With population data showing Melton as one of the fastest growing local government areas in the country over recent years, there is very strong demand from families in the area for electrical appliances, furniture, bedding, and other items for their homes,” he said.
MHG established the Melton Gateway Centre on its adjoining 30,000 square metre site in 2007.
MHG chairman Steve Haritos, said the success of the Melton Gateway project provided the impetus for this exciting new and state-of-the-art, large-format retail, Melton Homemaker Centre project with Harvey Norman.
