Events

I’ve been retailing in Invercargill for over 15 years, coming to Smiths City to manage the store after plying my trade in Roxburgh, Wanaka, Cromwell and Queenstown. I moved to Farmers Trading Store on Dee Street for a few years before moving to the Warehouse, where I managed for 9 years before moving to ICL. I enjoy engaging with community and being part of the revitalisation of the entire CBD, both for its Retail focus and Safety of the visitors to it. I’m looking forward to meeting you all and am sure you have questions for me 😊 Kelvin
