As the federal government and opposition compose their budgets and develop their strategies for the upcoming election, SKILLED Group will play a small part in keeping the politicians, advisers and staffers awake through those long hours at Parliament House in Canberra. Aussies Café, located in the bowels of Parliament House is where the real action in Parliament House takes place - it's where pollies deal, lobbyists pitch, journos gossip, and everyone meets. From its very beginning Aussies has had inside connections and was named after, Bob Hawke's former driver, Ozvaldo. Aussies Café is best known for the essential ingredient of political life, its coffee, for which there is a constant queue and SKILLED Group has managed to do a deal with the owners of Aussies Café whereby all the takeaway coffee cups are branded ‘SKILLED Group Proudly Australian’. Aussies' regular customers are the staffers and public servants based in the House, but its clientele swells during sitting weeks, when Parliament House accommodates up to 5000 itinerant politicians, support staff and public servants. So remember the next time you are listening to or reading the pearls of wisdom from our country’s leaders, be comforted in the fact, that SKILLED Group assisted them in the decisions that shape this magnificent country. The good ones, of course! Date: July 2010
