New purpose-built PGG Wrightson Darfield building

PGG Wrightson (“PGW”) opened its new purpose‐built Rural Supplies store and office today, to service the wider Darfield area. The building, located at 49 South Terrace (with the entrance at 1 Ross Street), is the site of the original 1940s Pyne Gould Guinness building.

PGW’s General Manager Retail & Water, Nick Berry said “We have outgrown our previous store and the new 993 square metre two storey building is approximately twice the size. The new store allows for an improved customer experience with the opportunity to expand the existing product range and stock new products.”

“We have worked closely with customers in the area for over 80 years and in many cases, we have relationships that span several generations. We look forward to welcoming our loyal and new customers to this modern purpose-built development. To better serve our customers and extend our Click & Collect hours we are now going to be open on Saturday morning from 9:00am to 12:00pm.”

The Darfield building is an integral part of the wider PGW store network, which has 92 Rural Supplies and Fruitfed Supplies stores throughout New Zealand. As well as the store, the building accommodates approximately 20 PGW employees covering a variety of business units to support our farmer customers.

For more than 165 years our people have been key members of the rural communities in which they live and work alongside their customers. As a result, we have been part of and have supported rural communities for multiple generations. Throughout the years our stores have innovated and adapted to meet the changing and diverse needs of our customers. Whether it is technical expertise, industry knowledge, or on-farm solutions, you can rely on us to deliver professional service with integrity.
