New desks and blinds bring new outlook

14/8/2020

 
 Earlier this year we put out a request to our Champion community to help us with a quote for custom built office desks to house our growing staff of specialists and therapists. We’d outgrown our current space and needed a design concept that would maximise what we had and ensure each of our fantastic team members had a place to call their own. Misco Joinery wasted no time in heeding the call and taking up the challenge. It was a huge undertaking, with seven offices needing an upgrade but nothing seemed too much trouble for the Kaiapoi joinery company, who made it clear from the start that this office fitout would be a gift to the Champion Centre.

The fabulous folks at Misco designed, planned and prefabricated customised desk units for the seven offices, a set of pigeonholes and a large hall cupboard, in time to welcome the team back for the new term. Penny, Jess, Chris and his team did an awesome job of transforming the Champion Centre’s workspace.

We are humbled once more by the munificent support from Graeme Rose, Managing Director at Window Treatments NZ Ltd. Graeme contacted us after hearing about our office upgrade, and hearing that the old window fittings in the offices were in a bit of disrepair. Graeme and his team offered to restore, clean and replace our blinds and curtains to a standard befitting our new workplace upgrade as a wonderful gift in-kind. With the clean, repaired and brand-new window treatments in place, we are feeling very proud of our Champion Centre makeover.

Our heartfelt thanks to:
Ready Made Blinds Ltd (who supplied our new blinds)
The Blind Care Company (who cleaned our existing blinds)
And Window Treatments NZ Ltd, the company that Ready Made Blinds and The Blind Care companies are subsidiaries of.

We express our warm appreciation to Mike and Glenn and the Misco team, and Graeme and his Window Treatments staff for their generosity, expertise and time. The difference this project has made to our devoted team here at the Centre is priceless. We can’t wait to welcome visitors and show off our purpose-built offices. You’d have to agree they have done an outstanding job!

Thank you Misco Joinery & Window Treatments from all of us at The Champion Centre!
