New World Newmarket opened its doors on Tuesday, October 4. The new store was designed with the needs of a busy urban community in mind and focuses on convenience and ease. The deli is a key feature, with an extensive range of food-to-go offerings. The store was a $7.5 million investment from Foodstuffs North Island.

“Each of our stores is proudly locally owned and operated, and becoming a co-op member and owning your first store takes many years of hard work and commitment to the grocery industry, which Matt has demonstrated over more than 15 years at Foodstuffs. To be able to support him on his journey to ownership makes this store opening that much more special,” said Morgan McCann, Foodstuffs North Island General Manager of Retail.
The 900sqm store sits in the building owned by Westfield’s Scentre Group at 42 Nuffield Street. There are 70 carparks, and the store has generated 40 new full-time roles for the area. New World Newmarket takes inspiration from the Morris Minor cars that were once built in the store, with an industrial-style fitout.
“After working with Foodstuffs for many years, it’s a privilege to now have my own store. My wife Amy and I are excited to be serving our local community. It’s an area that we’ve worked in before, so it’s great to be back,” said Matt Hayward, Store Owner.
“We’ve been able to tailor the store to the likes and needs of our community, and we know our customers are often busy or on the move, so our store has a great deli selection, including hot sandwiches and chickens, fresh salads, seafood and produce, meal solutions and delicious baked treats such as bread and sweets, as well as on-site, barista made Everybird coffee. Our craft beer selection will also compete with some of the best around.”
New World New Market is open Monday to Sunday, 7 am to 9 pm.
