Project Highlight: NZ Blood Laboratory Fit-out Design Coordination. New Zealand Blood Services required a state-of-the-art specialist laboratory to meet growing healthcare demands. Veron was engaged to coordinate stakeholders and consultant teams, delivering construction documentation within a tight four-month timeframe. This involved integrating the new facility within an existing warehouse. We implemented an agile design process after the client requested to allow for certain decisions to be deferred until onsite validation. This flexibility enabled us to provide timely solutions for issues discovered during construction, keeping the project on track. Regular site inspections and coordination meetings facilitated seamless communication and collaboration, allowing us to address emerging issues promptly. To meet the accelerated schedule, we developed and maintained a rigorous project plan, tracking progress against key milestones. Through effective management and problem-solving, we successfully delivered the specialist laboratory facility, meeting the urgent needs of New Zealand Blood Services. Services provided by Veron: - Gap analysis for building consent and construction set of documents and resulting advice - Management and coordination of the design process - Construction monitoring 

I’m pleased to share that, despite some challenges we’ve encountered with Watercare, PAK’nSAVE Highland Park will open as planned on Tuesday, 25 February. This milestone marks a significant achievement for our team, and we are incredibly excited to see this store become an integral part of the local community. As we prepare to welcome our first customers, I want to extend my thanks to everyone involved in making this opening possible. #PAK’nSAVEHighlandPark #FSNI #PropertyDevelopment Merih Boz, Nick Hanson, Kelly Brownlie, Alton Gullery, David Gordon, Greg Stone, Willa Hand, Renee Ell,

2025 is going to see another key milestone for L’Oréal Groupe ANZ towards our journey of building the company of the future. As our New Zealand business continue to grow, we made the decision to move to a new Distribution center which will enable to more than double our capacity in a 13’583 sqm site. With the intent of setting new benchmark in both safety and sustainability (100% renewable energy, solar panel, EV charging…), this new site will be a key building block in our strategy to put customer first and enable future growth. It is also a unique opportunity to create a very exciting and unique workplace for all our team, with enhanced common place, biodiversity garden and a modern 700sqm workplace. Following our recent investments made in our academy / training center and office renovation in last 12 months in New Zealand, this is another major step to help position New Zealand as driver of growth and innovation for our cluster and region. I am not only proud to work for a company that continuously look at transforming itself, but very excited by the opportunities it creates for all our teams. In partnership with James Kirkpatrick Group Ltd, I am convinced we can create something unique and set new benchmark for the future of operations. A massive thanks to James Kirkpatrick and his team for the unique partnership and to everyone involve in Collier and L’Oréal team across ANZ, Singapore and Paris. Now it is all about flawless execution and “En route for 2026, together!” #LOréal #lorealoperations #createthebeautythatmovestheworld #weareloreal #LorealANZ #Lorealforthefuture #NewZealand
