Ms Hunter added, “Families remain at the heart of Officeworks, relying on us for solutions that help their households and businesses operate day-to-day. Over the last 30 years, we have evolved our ranges to better meet the changing needs of customers, including the acceleration of digitisation and the expanding business-to-business landscape and I am incredibly excited of what’s to come.
“We have a strong future as we continually invest in innovation, expand our offerings, and most importantly, remain committed to inspiring our customers to work, learn, create and connect, and in turn, help make bigger things happen, together.”
