Part of the Waitaki District, the region is an unspoiled piece of paradise that people come from all over the world to see and experience. The region is rich in history and heritage and is home to the Oamaru Blue Penguin Colony, Moeraki Boulders, the Janet Frame trail, Clarks Mill as well as a coastline with some of New Zealand’s most untouched and unspoiled beaches.
With a population of 12,700 the region is growing and so is CrestClean. Oamaru is a great place to live and work in. CrestClean Oamaru is not just a team – we are a family, which is why if you are new to the region we will help you settle in. We will help you find a house to rent and/or buy, ensure you find your children suitable schools and we will help get your CrestClean franchise started.
There is plenty of work available in Oamaru. The Waitaki region is going from strength to strength which has been shown this year with the increase in growth and revenue. The increase also means there are plenty of future growth opportunities.
