Works are currently underway for the new building, which will span 13,000 sqm and will be developed in two stages. The first stage covers the main warehouse of Bunnings Caboolture and the second one, for the extension, includes the nursery area, timber trade area, entrance, and landscaping.
The $32-million warehouse, located on the corner of Bruce Highway and Pumicestone Road, received its approval from Moreton Bay Regional Council in 2021. Eildon Funds Management lodged its plans back in June 2020.
The retail centre is expected not just to provide greater convenience to local residents living in Caboolture and surrounding suburbs, but also complement existing stores in the area.
It will anchor the Big Fish Business Park, previously known as the Sungate Business Park, where a service station was built in 2018 and a fast food chain opened by 2020. Both new developments also created hundreds of jobs for locals throughout construction and on the opening.
Some of the remaining parts of Big Fish go-kart track and dam were removed to facilitate the development.
Meanwhile, Bunnings Caboolture will have a total of 407 car parking spaces, which includes 10 spaces for accessible parking, 12 trailer bays, two truck bays and seven trolley bays.
The new warehouse, which is going to be slightly bigger than the one in Morayfield, was supposed to open in late 2022, but construction has been delayed due to the weather and the Covid-19 pandemic.
