点评:Not a lot can I say without being really negative. The main reason for our visit was to purchase planed timber for a project. After sourcing timber which proved very difficult. Lots of stock in various lengths but mostly bowed or twisted certainly struggled to find enough. After much searching I managed to find a few lengths. Then searched around for other items on my list. I did find a few items but they had already been opened and on a couple of occasions parts were missing so it was really disappointing.
After a fruitless experience we decided to have coffee and a bite to eat. Hmm! What can I or we say is more accurate. "YUK" we left our drinks etc. and walked out. This seems to have only happened after the dinning room closed down more the pity. I've no idea what is happening but I got the impression that the business is struggling to survive, certainly not like the Trago we've used over the past 12 years or so. Maybe it's time to seek a fresh look still selling the same type of goods but in a more independent look using smaller businesses trading on a lease system whereby better control can be made over staff and stock. With the amount of space available why not think about an entertainment section i.e. A cinema, mini bowling, a roller skating area or a small childrens climbing area. Surely that would bring in more families?
And finally back to the timber on trying to plane it straight the wood was still very green or in layman's terms wet. So in the end a waste of money and purchased from Bonds Timber instead. What should have been a few days work ended up taking a week.
To say I'm disappointed is an understatement. So please, Trago management team sit around the table. Drink your coffee from your new coffee shop and start thinking of what can be achieved to have a positive outcome and turn Trago around before it is too late. Ask your customers what they would be seeing, I'm sure you will be enlightened by the feedback.
翻译:如果不说太多负面的话,我实在没什么可说的。我们此行的主要目的是为某个项目购买刨光木材。寻找木材的过程十分艰难。虽然各种长度的木材很多,但大多都弯曲变形,很难找到足够的长度。费了好大劲才找到几根。然后我又四处寻找清单上的其他物品。虽然找到了一些东西,但包装都已被打开,有好几次甚至缺零件,真是令人失望。
一番徒劳无功的寻找之后,我们决定喝杯咖啡,吃点东西。嗯!还能用什么词来形容呢?“真糟糕!”我们放下饮料就走了。更可惜的是,这似乎是在餐厅关门后才发生的。我不知道发生了什么,但感觉这家店经营困难,远不如我们过去十二年来一直光顾的Trago。或许是时候换个思路了,继续销售同类商品,但采用更独立的经营模式,与规模较小的企业合作,以租赁方式运营,这样可以更好地管理员工和库存。既然有这么多空间,为什么不考虑增设一个娱乐区呢?比如电影院、迷你保龄球馆、轮滑场或儿童攀爬区。这肯定能吸引更多家庭顾客吧?
最后再说回木材,我试着把它刨直,但木头还很湿,或者说很硬。结果白白浪费了钱,最后还是从邦兹木材公司买了木材。原本几天就能搞定的事,结果花了一周时间。
失望之情难以言表。所以,特拉戈的管理团队,请坐下来好好想想。在你们新开的咖啡店里喝着咖啡,想想怎样才能扭转局面,在为时已晚之前让特拉戈重回正轨。问问你们的顾客,他们希望看到什么,我相信他们的反馈会给你们带来启发。
