Statement Re: Auckland Flooding Impact
Spencer Sonn, Countdown's Managing Director:
Our thoughts are with those communities and families who have been impacted by the devastating flooding across the Auckland region - and the communities also impacted by torrential rain in Northland and Coromandel.
At this stage our only store that has been majorly impacted is Countdown Mairangi Bay, which is closed due to flood damage. It’s likely to stay that way for a few days as we clean up and make sure the store is safe for customers and our team. We appreciate our customers’ understanding while we work through this.
The rest of our Auckland stores will be open today but there may be some disruption on shelves and with online orders as our team gets things back to normal.
Thankfully, all of our team are safe but we may be a little light on the ground with some of our team staying home due to road closures and other flooding impacts.
We want to thank our customers in advance for their patience while we work hard to make sure everyone can get what they need.
