At New World, being Here for NZ is in our DNA. We love our country and take the responsibility to look after this wonderful place we call home seriously. Being 100% New Zealand owned and operated, we’re locals like you. With local owners in every one of our stores, we’re focused on supporting the communities where we live in the way that is right for them. We’re on a committed journey towards a more sustainable future. Between now and 2025, we’re focused on reducing our carbon emissions and minimising waste and plastic, so we can help safeguard our environment for generations to come. To make the biggest impact we can, we’re focusing on what matters most:
Sustainability leadership
At New World, we’re committed to leading the way in New Zealand’s sustainable future. We do this by making it easier for our customers to shop sustainably by reducing plastic in our produce departments through to helping customers ‘go reusable’ at check-out and serve-over. We also believe in walking the talk, so we run an award-winning waste minimisation programme and have a growing fleet of electric vans zipping around the country.
Supporting our local communities
All New World stores are 100% New Zealand owned and operated. Each store proudly supports charities and groups that reflect their unique local community. From the primary school around the corner to the local beach clean, we are committed to making a real difference for our communities across New Zealand.
Healthy and affordable food
Healthy food makes healthy communities. Access to affordable and healthy food should not be a privilege. We are committed to doing our bit through our private label Pams and Value brands , and our partnerships with Food For Thought, food banks and food rescue organisations.
Meaningful work
At New World, we are a team of thousands proudly doing what we love to do, every day. We invest in training and development so that all our team members – on our shop floor, in our distribution centres and support centre, are fulfilled, supported and safe.
