The Leon Enterprise Limited has branched out to Rainbow Suburb in Port Moresby with a massive investment in hardware and associated industries.
A well-placed source within the company told PNG SUN that they were transforming the former Stop-n-Shop store from ashes to iconic multi-layer buildings.
It complements well with Eliseo Supermarket, Mobil Fuel Station, Rainbow Stop-n-Shop, the Jubilee University, Port Moresby National High School, other schools, estates and churches.
He said the value of the project is between K30 million and K40 million.
The project, he said, has progressed well despite a stop-work notice served by the municipal government for non-compliance.
He continued that it has created business and employment opportunities for locals both at the construction and operation stages.
Leon Hardware brand currently has four branches within the city-7-Mile, Erima, Gordons and 4-Mile.
The fifth one at Rainbow is under construction now.
