Newmarket Is Retail, Offices and Apartments
We’ll be straight about Newmarket: our job history here is thinner than in East and South Auckland. The work we have done in the suburb has been commercial infrastructure and lighting, earth trunking and replacing up-lights, rather than a long list of domestic callouts.
What we do bring is fifty years of exactly the kind of work Newmarket needs: retail and office fitouts, emergency and exit lighting compliance, test and tag, and lighting upgrades. We do this daily in Pakuranga, Highland Park and along the East Tamaki commercial belt, and there is nothing about a Newmarket retail tenancy that differs from a Botany one except the parking.
We can also work outside trading hours, which for a Broadway or Nuffield Street tenancy usually matters more than anything else.
