Good Locations
What a month July was for Solar Shop Australia. We opened a number of new retail stores across Australia, from Bunbury in WA to Caringbah in South Sydney. This is all part of our desire to be closer to people wanting to understand more about solar. Solar Shop now offers a number of different ways for customers to connect with us, online, on the phone, in their home, or at one of our retail showrooms.
