ALDI Menai, NSW

As part of a large roll out programme, the 9 day shutdown for the ALDI Menai store was especially unique due to its accelerated nature and demanding schedule of works.

The upgrade works included a full refrigeration upgrade and a full internal refurbishment.

As part of the upgrade, Prime Build demolished external features to make space for a new concrete slab, relocated underground services, installed new refrigeration units, operated a complex traffic management plan, managed crane lifts and completely reinstated the landscaping surrounding the store.

Prime Build had to plan precisely and execute e iciently to ensure the store’s full refrigeration and refurbishment upgrade were successfully delivered in the designated time frame.

ALDI Engadine Project Refresh, NSW

ALDI had an existing store in Engadine shopping centre and was planned for a refit and extension as part of the Project Fresh roll out.

The existing store was to be extended by 8 meters in length by taking existing retail space by other tenants once they had vacated.

Prime Build developed a strategy to undertake the project in a two stage process to enable minimum disruption to the store trading operations.

The project was tracked in real time as built programme documented as the project progressed, allowing Prime Build to identify programme items that could be improved to amend future programmes of fresh roll outs. The key learning from this project is that the time could be reduced if direct subcontractors and suppliers operated 24 hours.

Maitland Mall, NSW

The Maitland Mall shopping centre was a tired, undercapitalised retail centre located in in NSW’s Hunter region.

Prime Build were engaged to revitalise the centre, works consisting of a complete refresh of mall areas, anchor tenant shopfront, amenities and a new food court and tenancy repositioning.

A staged works program was adopted to minimise disruption to the shops within the mall, as well as careful attention to dust minimisation and a focus on completing works prior to handover and exposure to Mall customers to reduce the impact of the refurbishment to their daily experience in the centre.
