Just pop your item in the right size satchel, and pay the relevant flat rate at when you drop off your parcel,” Mr Costabile said.

The company’s ongoing growth is providing opportunities for team members to build careers in both the corporate and franchised networks.

“Most of our new build stores open as corporate stores, providing internal opportunities for our corporate store team to progress in their careers. Mamta has been with our business for more than seven years.  Through her amazing efforts she has progressed from a store team member, to an assistant store manager and then led four other teams as store manager. This is her first brand new store. As a leader, watching your team members take advantage of the career opportunities created from their hard work and talent is incredibly rewarding,” Mr Costabile said.

Growth in the 7-Eleven network has strong, with approximately 30 stores opening each year nationally

“It’s important to us that we continue to build a network of stores in convenient local areas that fulfil the needs of our customers,” Mr Costabile concluded.
