Concierge & Facilities Support

Ko wai mātou – About us   

Kia ora.  We’re Foodies.  You know New World, PAK’nSAVE and Four Square right? That’s us!

With 300+ stores and over 27,000 Foodies across Te Ika-a-Maui, our North Island Co-op has the privilege of helping New Zealanders get more out of life.  Locally owned, we reflect the communities we serve, and we celebrate our people - our taonga, every day for being uniquely them. 

Our purpose-built offices near Auckland Airport are home to New Zealand’s largest Distribution Centre and our Support Centre, where around 1,000 people work together to help us become one of the most customer-driven retailers in the world.
