The 'I Love Tok' campaign is part of the Tokoroa Branding Strategy and will see Council and property managers of vacant stores working together to revamp their store windows, improve the overall look of Tokoroa's CBD and attract new business ventures to Tokoroa.

The posters will be brightly coloured and will feature 16 brave Tokoroa residents from a mixture of ages and backgrounds. Each participant was asked to have their picture taken in an 'I love Tok' t-shirt and provide a quote of what it is they love about living in Tokoroa.

Each store will also have a black and white poster that will read ”This could be your opportunity” and contact details for Jill Ferguson, South Waikato Community Resource Officer, will be listed. Jill will act as a liaison between the property manager and new business ventures by passing any enquiries on to property managers and by providing support and information to new business ventures.

This is a free service offered to property managers of stores located in the central business district, however there is the possibility of the service being extended to surrounding areas, in the future.

For more information please contact Jill on 07 885 0705.
