NEW ZEALAND | For eight years in a row, PAK’nSAVE has ranked first for fairness in Aotearoa and second overall with a massive Rep Z score of 110. New World has also ‘found its wonderful’ and jumped into the top ten, with an overall score of 106, representing a world-class rating.
Managing Director of Foodstuffs New Zealand Chris Quin said that having two brands ranked in the top ten demonstrated that the 100 percent New Zealand-owned and operated co-op has made a real difference, with local grocer families nationwide focused on working hard for their communities.
“PAK’nSAVE is head down on its commitment to deliver New Zealand’s lowest food prices, but rising inflation and weather disasters have been challenging. For New Zealanders to continue to recognise our rock-solid commitment to fairness is something the whole PAK’nSAVE team should be extremely proud of,” said Quin.
“We also know trust is a huge driver of reputation. Everyone at New World has put a massive amount of mahi into showing that it’s a great place to shop for everyday low prices and value, and it also has a positive impact on the wider community.”
He added that local New World grocers and store teams felt a strong responsibility to be Here for New Zealand, whether through working to support the 12 social supermarkets, hundreds of food rescue organisations or the Family2Family campaign.
The Kantar Corporate Reputation Index survey was conducted between February and March 2024 and rated public perceptions of New Zealand’s top 50 consumer-facing corporates.
It used Kantar’s globally trusted Rep Z framework to measure excellence on four key platforms: leadership and success, responsibility, trust, and fairness in pricing.
A score of 105 or above is considered world-class.
