Meet The Team

Paul is the Store Manager and is responsible for the day to day managing of the entire Highway site, including the Department Store, Garden Centre, Plant Area, Nursery, Restaurant & Café.

Kim and the other members of the Nursery team are responsible for all of the plants we grow at Highway. She's been at the company nearly 35 years and has fond memories of helping her father (Joe High) in the Nursery as a child during school holidays.

The best part of her job is seeing all the bedding & basket plants coming into flower during the spring and her favourite plants are Zonal Geraniums because they always look beautiful and are easy to grow.

Kim's top tips for growing perfect bedding plants are good lighting, the right temperature, good ventilation, the right compost and correct watering. Don't be tempted to plant outside too early, the end of May is ideal and extra time in the greenhouse gives plants more time to reach their full potential.

Gary oversees the day to day running of the Department Store and Food Hall. He's worked for Roys for 23 years in various stores, and has been at Highway for 6 years.

His favourite parts of his job are interacting with customers and setting up the store for different seasons, best of which is Christmas which is always a big affair at Highway.

Stephen is the Aquatics Senior at Highway and he and the other members of the Aquatics Centre look after all the aquarium and pond fish in store as well as all the other aquatic animals. If you need any help or advice about keeping fish or setting up an aquarium then Stephen and the team will be more than happy to help.
