Cookie Time is revelling in the “Costco effect” and has increased its sales by more than $1 million since the retail giant opened its first Auckland store in September.
The Christchurch-based business founded by Michael Mayell in the early 1980s has been selling a pallet of its cookies each day since the world’s second-largest retailer launched in New Zealand.
Cookie Time Group management is also now looking at opportunities to expand its Templeton factory to meet long-term demand.
Cookie Time developed a product for the Costco store and was then later asked to produce more of it for other stores across the Asia Pacific region.
