Work has begun on the new state-of-the-art PAK'nSAVE for Warkworth, which is due to open in mid-2023. Foodstuffs North Island is investing over $40 million into the project.
"Warkworth is a growing community, with people coming from a wide area to do their weekly shopping. It's a privilege for us to be able to invest in the area and work alongside the community to deliver a fantastic new supermarket offer to the area," said Nick Hanson, General Manager of Property for Foodstuffs North Island.
The Warkworth store is planned to be 5300sqm and will include 170 car parks and a click and collect drive-through. It will also create around 150 jobs for the area.
"As a 100% locally owned and operated co-op, it's important to us that our investment is shared across all the communities in which we operate. We're committed to bringing kiwis the very best experience and grocery offering, regardless of whether they live in the heart of a big city or further afield."
The new store is located on the corner of state highway 1 and Hudson Road.
