The current PlaceMakers operating structure developed following the 1988 merger between Fletcher Merchants and Winstone Trading Limited (that included Odlins and Zip Trading).
FLETCHER MERCHANTS LIMITED
In 1910 James Fletcher established a joinery factory and began Fletchers long association with the timber industry. Over 70 years, Fletchers became one of the largest timber merchants. In 1958, Fletchers expanded into building materials merchandising by purchasing a number of companies including McCallum and Co Limited, HC Kitchen Limited, Felvins Limited, Ellis and Burnand Limited and several branches of John Burns Limited.
Fletcher Merchants, as it became, introduced the hardware supermarket / one stop shop concept into building materials merchandising in New Zealand and in 1981 they adopted a new trading brand - PlaceMakers.
THE WINSTONE GROUP
The Winstone name goes back as far as 1864 and over time grew a reputation supplying an extensive range of materials to the building and construction markets. Winstone Trading Limited was formed in 1984 and over five years grew to provide national coverage by purchasing a number of smaller businesses including Odlins and Dudding Brothers.
The merger of Fletcher Merchants Limited and Winstone Trading Limited in 1988 produced the largest and only nationwide building materials chain in New Zealand.

β β β β β Not a bad store if you know what you want and don't need any help at all! I have very low expectations with help from this store. Usually go elsewhere unless I know just what I want

β β β β β Walked in to get some timber and was met by very unfriendly staff. If you dont't want to work on Saturdays find a suitable job. Sales staff in retail should ALWAYS be friendly and helpfull.
