It is with a very heavy heart that we announce that we will be closing our business the Gerroa newsagency, Post Office and General Store at the end of this financial year. Our last trading day with be on the 30th of June 2025
We would love to thank everyone whom over the past 25 and a half years have supported us.
There are many reasons why we have made this very hard decision, and it has not been done lightly.
Our very small town has changed over the past several years. While there are a lot more dwellings compared to 10 or 20 years ago, these dwellings remain mostly vacant and are hardly occupied.
We have noticed a decline in long term residents in the town, either by lack of long-term rentals available or affordable housing for families, couples etc. This has had a major impact on the business.
Like other businesses our operating costs have increased greatly, We have some supplies requesting minimal orders at unreasonable quantities
These are some of the many reasons that have had a bearing on our decision.
We have given over 25 years of service 7 days a week. We would prefer to keep operating; however, it is no longer viable. We hope you can appreciate our position.
Again many thanks for your loyal support over the past 25 years, but all good things must come to an end.
