About Four Square Kaponga
Why the name Four Square?
The name Four Square emerged when Mr Barker, while talking on the telephone to one of the buying group members on 4th July 1924, drew a square around the 4 of the date on his calendar. He immediately realised he had a suitable name for the buying group, stating that "they would stand 'Four Square' to all the winds that blew".
By the end of 1924, products were appearing under the Four Square name, and by 1929, discussions were underway on the use of a common branding on stores. Early versions of the Four Square sign were produced in the form of red and gold hand painted glass panels for display in members' stores.
In February 1948, New Zealand's first self-service grocery store was opened in Onehunga by Phil Barker (the son of the founder of the group) and Ray McGregor. This soon became the norm for grocery retailing.

β β β β β Good range of products considering its a blimp on the radar tiny town, friendly enough people once they warm up day 2/3 to non locals hanging in town, good chicken and chips, nice cabinet food, lotto etc. Close way to early sometimes 5ish pm but definitely by 6pm. Downfall dont serve any hot takeaway drinks hot chocolate coffee tea no self serve machine either, and no where in town to grab a sit down early hit full or part breakfast meal, considering the amount of truckies that stop for a good rest revive to survive time frame I believe its absolutely A must invest in category, as a chef n.baker there is a small untapped market missing that they totally have the small but proficient space to fill and offer a hot small simple sit down food and beverage oprion from, for thought

β β β β β Good produce (especially fruit n veg). Clean and tidy shelves and stock, well laid out. Comfortable aisles, not too crowded. Friendly staff, looking good in their uniform. Quite a big store, given the size of the little town!
