About Us

Our company was established in 1965 with our original family owners continuing to be involved.  We have grown to become one of New Zealand’s largest group of giftware stores. Our range is diverse and promotes New Zealand and our way of life. Our collections often capture the essence of old New Zealand days or serve as a reminder of your journeys around Aotearoa, gifts for friends and family with a particular New Zealand flavour.

We are proud to embrace New Zealand’s unique culture in our stores where you will find items handmade or designed by local kiwi’s, many of whom we have formed solid relationships with when our business was founded in 1965.

Customer service is a key focus for us. We want to ensure our customers’ expectations are exceeded when they shop with us. Our staff are courteous, motivated, and trained to provide excellent service and our business is backed by our close-knit management team.
