Tomkins is delighted to announce the completion of HomeCo Cairns. The project comprised the conversion of an existing industrial style building to a high specification office and retail centre. More than 6,000 sqm of brand-new retail space and common areas have been provided for HomeCo customers to enjoy, including the recently opened Amart Furniture. The team also delivered 6,000 sqm of prime commercial office space achieving a 4 Star Green Star and 4.5 NABERS rating.

Home Consortium had identified the tenant for the commercial office space a number of years prior to construction commencing in late 2018. Over the course of two years, Tomkins were involved in an Early Contractor Involvement (ECI) process, attending meetings with the client in Cairns and assisting in the design process.

Using our past experience in designing and constructing similar buildings, the project team was able to provide valuable input for both the building owner and the future tenant to deliver a highly functional space.

Congratulations to the North Queensland project team on the delivery of another fantastic HomeCo centre.
