Although the old store was demolished on 15 March 2015 to make room for its replacement, New World Milford is still under construction and will not open in time for Christmas, as originally expected. Foodstuffs North Island has announced that, due to some site issues, the new store will not be ready until April 2016.
“While we are disappointed about the delay, we think the result when the new store opens will be well worth it. New World Milford will have 40 percent more retail space than the old store, with a fantastic fresh food offer and plenty of space and natural light,” said Angela Bull, General Manager Property Development, Foodstuffs North Island. “We would like to thank our customers and the community for being so patient and supportive.”
