About Four Square Te Puke
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 Would give a 5 ? but the huge sign
'No Mask, No Entry'
is gutting to see, a mandate suggested as law which goes against the Bill of Rights, where smothering someone is a crime punishable as 7 years.. Makes one think..
& the trickle down effect is the next door bakery whipped out a similar sign some weeks later.

β β β β β It's a well known store locally no matter the different owners. Staff have been the same with most owners and are well known by locals and locals know them. Gets to be a friendly catch up place with them. A place that is open when other grocery stores are not. Convenient store. Lotto sales etc.
