SPAR Australia has revealed its newest SPAR Express store in Urangan, a picturesque coastal suburb of Hervey Bay in the Fraser Coast region in Queensland. This new location is designed to provide exceptional convenience, quality products, and competitive pricing to local shoppers.
Store owner Jignesh (Jig) Patel, along with his wife and family, proudly calls Maryborough home. With a strong background in retail, Jig has successfully operated SPAR Express Maryborough since October 2017, SPAR Express Granville since April 2018, and SPAR Express Kawungan since June 2023. His commitment to affordability, quality service, and community engagement has made his stores a trusted destination for locals.
Located at Shop 1, 8-10 Pier Street, SPAR Express Urangan is open seven days a week from 5am-7pm, offering an extensive range of groceries, dairy, frozen foods, and convenient grab-and-go meal options. The store features modern cabinetry, state-of-the-art refrigeration, a delicious hot food selection, premium coffee, and unbeatable specials tailored to meet the needs of busy lifestyles.
“Mr Patel is deeply committed to supporting the local community, employing residents and sponsoring local cricket and soccer teams,” SPAR Australia said. “His dedication to service was especially evident when SPAR Express Granville remained open during three major floods, ensuring uninterrupted service to customers.
“As a proud SPAR retailer for the past eight years, Jig values the brand’s strong community focus and high-quality standards.” When asked about the future, Jig said that he “plans to further expand his retail presence, continuing to meet the needs of local shoppers with convenience and reliability.”
