The store will be the first New World in NZ to have ‘Shop & Go’ in store. Allowing customers to scan their groceries as they shop and then pay at a dedicated terminal.

An energy monitoring system has been installed to automatically adjust airflow, temperature and lighting as well as provide an optimum internal environment. Also new in store are electronic shelf labels and LED aisle end displays with an emphasis and end goal of zero printing.
