2015 Kennards Self

10 Years Service

“An ever changing format of business ideas to grow and explore better ways of reaching our customers and providing the right solution for their needs. 10 years with Kennards Self Storage means to me: stability, fun, respect and most importantly growth. Growth as an individual, growth as a Team and growth as a company.” Johny Vaman - Rozelle Darryl Lewisson, Anastasia Christou, Glen Bayley, Nigel Spragg. Absent: Neville Arkinstall, Patricia Larkins and Bev Brooking L to R: Sam Kennard presenting 10 Years Service to Melineh Avanessian, Brett Cleland, Joanne Woodhouse, Lynda Walsh, Johny Vaman, Darryl Hodgson, Michael Macheledt, Fiona Harding,

“The one main thing that 10 years has meant for me with KSS is the feeling of being part of a bigger Team. The feeling of being part of an extended family and being part of a growing business that is the envy of others in the storage industry. It makes me proud to don the orange and blue daily and fly the flag in SE Melbourne.“ Brett Cleland - Springvale “In my 10 years I have seen many changes and watched how KSS has grown. They have helped me develop both professionally and personally and provided me with a safe, secure and fun work environment. I feel privileged to work with such a wonderful Team and great company.” Joanne Woodhouse - THQ “When reflecting on my 10 years at KSS I could talk about how positive my colleagues are and the pride I have working in KSS. I also reflect on how many KSS accessories I own, from bottle openers and travel games through to boxer shorts and t-shirts. One story that stands out is during a rather tense conversation a vacating Wollongong tenant said (pointing at me) “…and you…you are the gayest man in Wollon- gong…….and I know many gay men” it took all my strength to stop bursting out laughing – all that just for wearing the all-time classic KSS Hawaiian shirt.” Michael Macheledt - THQ

“The support and encouragement I have received over the past 10 years has been truly fantastic and is a testament to why Kennards is such a good company to work for. I’m absolutely certain that I’ll continue to receive that same support and encouragement over the next 10 years.” Darryl Lewisson - Fyshwick “When I look back to the day Kennards opened for business in NZ , I feel very privileged to have seen the growth of the NZ sites, who were then unknown and now are leaders in the NZ Storage Industry. I would like to take this opportu- nity to thank Andrew Kirkham for the leadership and Support he extends to all the NZ Team. Bev Brooking - TSM NZ
