Working for you
While local retailers offer convenience and accessibility to customers, the owners of these stores often face significant challenges in running and growing their businesses.
By creating a more sustainable and successful business model for both owners and customers alike, we are taking a proactive approach to advocate for the well-being of our members. In particular, we are focused on helping local retail stores endure upcoming tobacco restrictions and challenge the supermarket duopoly we experience in New Zealand.
Our Mission
- Provide the right tools and information to enable our members to run sustainable businesses
- Advocate for safer communities
- Carry on the tradition of small businesses as a cornerstone of the New Zealand community.
Building
a community
Going forward, we aim to unite store owners who share our vision for business success in a competitive retail industry. Our first action step is alignment with select industry groups and organisations who share our interests and values. With the support of these groups, we can create a strong, country-wide network of support.
