Rabobank New Zealand’s new office building in Gore opened its doors last month and the bank’s employees are now settling into their new home located at 134 Main Street.
The new purpose-built office includes work stations for up to 14 staff as well as extensive kitchen, meeting and boardroom facilities.
Rabobank South Island Regional Manager Micheal Dunn said the opening of the new office reflected the bank’s ongoing commitment to its clients and the wider food and agribusiness sector in the Southland region.
“The bank’s agri lending client base in Southland has grown strongly over the last decade and we now have a significant portfolio of clients across the dairy, sheep, beef and arable sectors as well as team of more than 30 staff located across our Gore and Invercargill offices,” he said.
“Our intention is to continue growing our agri lending in the region over the years ahead and, with our new Gore office now open, we are ideally positioned to support our clients and explore new business opportunities with other top-quality farming businesses.”
Mr Dunn said the bank’s Gore-based employees recently moved into the new office from the temporary office they’d been working out of at 24 Main Street.
