KIWIBANK in Gisborne is developing a stand-alone branch and NZ Post is looking for a new home in town.
New Zealand Post head of retail, Mark Yagmich said NZ Post was now actively looking for a local business, to work with to deliver postal services that are available from thePostShop on the corner of Gladstone Road and Bright Street.
Postal services are available in Gisborne also at the Ballance Street Bookshop, Whataupoko, at the NZ PostShop and Kiwibank in Kaiti Mall, and Lytton West Post and Lotto in Lytton West.
Mr Yagmich said NZ Post already successfully delivered postal services through local businesses in many communities throughout New Zealand as a way of maintaining a sustainable business.
