As we continue our network revitalisation, we also welcome our first complete Big Bite branded store to the TASCO network.
Our site at Sea Lake has undergone a significant refurbishment, bringing with it a new level of service and convenience for travellers and locals alike. With food volumes at the site steadily increasing, the upgrades were both timely and essential to ensure that the location could continue to grow and meet demand.
At the heart of the transformation is the installation of a fully equipped kitchen, designed to support an expanded food offer. The renovation also features modernised facilities throughout, including new hot and cold display units, upgraded counterworks, and additional shelving to strengthen both the food and convenience offering. A barista coffee insert has been introduced, serving Common Ground coffee, ensuring that customers can enjoy a premium coffee experience to compliment their meal.
As part of the refurbishment, we have also implemented our branded food store, Big Bite. This aligns with our broader commitment to providing memorable customer experiences—going above and beyond the basics of fuel and food to create a stopover destination that travellers look forward to visiting.
Pete Jessup, TASCO Retail Manager noted that the changes at Sea Lake are part of a wider strategy to lift the standard of our networks roadside service across the region. “We recognise that today’s customers are looking for more than just fuel. They want quality food, fresh coffee, and a welcoming environment where they can take a break and recharge,” Pete said. “Our investment at Sea Lake reflects our commitment to delivering exactly that.”
With the Calder Highway serving as a vital transport route, the enhanced Sea Lake site is positioned to play an important role for both locals and those passing through. Next time you’re travelling the Calder, make sure to stop in at Sea Lake to experience the newly refurbished site!
This year we continued our network revitalisation, commencing with The Bridge Cafe & Fuel!
With fantastic operators, busy location and expansive fresh food offer, the site was due for an uplift and rebrand to match.
Beginning with the rebrand, we wanted to promote in the new name and logo all that The Bridge Cafe & Fuel has to offer, including both the cafe and fuel elements, along with a fresh new look for both the external facade and internal refurbishment.
Along with the expansive fresh food offer, customers are now welcomed by a fully refurbished store with all new counter joinery, new cold unit, sandwhich prep unit, coffee machine, fully painted interior to continue the rebrand colour scheme and new shelving to compliment the in store convenience offer.
