As many of us Rockhampton people have found out today, after 31 years trading here, Sizzler will no longer be in Rockhampton from the 2nd of March. Stockland Rockhampton have decided they’re “redeveloping” (not that they really need to with all the empty shops that are already there) and Sizzler is OUT. 

This is a desperate plea to Collins Foods Limited, PLEASE don’t leave Rockhampton, please open somewhere else if Stockland are kicking you out. 

STATEMENT FROM COLLINS FOODS LIMITED:

"Collins Foods Limited has confirmed it will close its Rockhampton Sizzler restaurant with the closure coinciding with the redevelopment of the Stockland shopping centre.

Sizzler Rockhampton will trade as usual until its last day, Sunday March 1, 2020.

The announcement relates to Sizzler Rockhampton only and all other Sizzler restaurants remain open for business.

Collins is working with the managers and team members at Sizzler Rockhampton regarding possible employment opportunities at other Collins foods restaurants, and outplacement support as needed.

“We want to thank our employees for their dedication, and our guests for their loyalty, over the last 31 years,” said a Collins Foods Limited spokesperson.

“The staff and management of Sizzler Rockhampton have been fantastic, making sure every dining experience was a great one for our amazing customers.”
