Changing the way we shop in Feilding

Friday, 16 March 2018

There will soon be a brand new way to shop in Feilding with the impending opening of a brand new state-of-the-art New World supermarket on the corner of Aorangi and Gladstone Streets. But, a few other changes come with that development.

“We’re delighted to be opening a new store mid-year, which will be a truly wonderful place to shop and a fabulous asset for Feilding,” says Todd Carter, owner-operator of both the existing New World and Write Price. “However, the move is tinged with a little sadness as we’ll be closing our sister store; Write Price, a little earlier than we had anticipated, at the end of March. We know there are a few customers who will be a bit upset to see this store shut its doors, but we’re really looking forward to welcoming everyone to our beautiful New World supermarket in a few months.

Write Price will close on March 24. Until then, the same sharp deals will be available to locals.

“We’re delighted to say that some of the Write Price crew will be transferring to our new store, having had a short stint working at the existing New World on Fergusson Street. We’d also like to put the call out to people looking for a great job opportunity at our new store. We’re actively recruiting for roles in nearly every department in what will be one of the most modern supermarkets in the region. Get in touch!” says Todd.

Lindsay Rowles, GM Property for Foodstuffs North Island says, “The new store will have the very latest New World innovations and will offer a bright, spacious, more modern shopping environment – with loads of natural light, and environmentally friendly features.

“Locals will have seen our new store going up – it’s a significant investment in the area – and will be a fantastic place to work. Todd and Nicola Carter are great operators and are very excited to be offering Feilding locals and people from surrounding regions a great place to shop and to work. You just never know where you’ll end up working in one of our stores. Many people who start at entry level go on to be owner-operators of their very own stores.”
