RG Strategic was engaged by RLSSQ to redesign and seek the Food Premises approvals for our commercial kitchen and kiosk. Russell and his team at RG Strategic assisted with the project from initial planning, through to completion of work. Russel was well versed in council guidelines and requirements, and referred us to sources for cost-efficient suppliers, etc. The Food Premises project was completed quickly and passed Council inspection without any fuss. Thanks, Russell.

Another fantastic result working with Russell and the team at RG Strategic. RG's years of experience, professional and personable approach to all Noosa Shire Planning and Development issues have allowed for a very smooth worry-free STA process and successful result for our Noosa house. With our highest recommendation, RG Strategic know their stuff and know how to get the job done within the system which is greatly appreciated.

We engaged RG Strategic to help us with our liquor licence and food licence for our new venue Flo's Creperie in Mooloolaba. Having worked with Russell, Maree and Tracey during the launch of our Noosa venue, we already knew they were a highly professional and knowledgeable team. This time, however, they really went above and beyond, performing a few miracles along the way to ensure we opened up on time. We couldn't be more grateful for their arduous work and commitment. I highly recommend RG Strategic to anyone who needs assistance with planning matters, and I look forward to working with them again in future!

Flo's Creperie - Mooloolaba
A great big thank you to Russell Green and all the guys at RG Strategic. The result you achieved for us with our complex town planning issue was exceptional. In obtaining the approvals for our restaurant refurbishment and outside area cover we will be in a position to be able to offer our patrons a much more comfortable dining experience. It was reassuring for us to have a town planning consultant with such a complete knowledge of the food/beverage and hospitality industries as well as a thorough understanding of all the technical aspects required to meet Noosa Council's strict approvals process. I would have no hesitation in recommending Russell and the team to anyone who requires planning or compliance services, particularly food premises in the Sunshine Coast or Noosa area. Once again thanks, Russell.
