The first 40 shops in the 230-store $790 million Westfield Newmarket which is New Zealand's biggest retail redevelopment will open at the end of this month.
Those 40 stores will be on levels one, two and three of the mall, a statement said. "The centre will welcome a new Farmers, a first-to-market Coco Republic featuring L'Americano café and a mix of New Zealand's favourite brands now available in the one place," a statement said. Kathmandu, Rebel Sport, Under Armour and new beauty, lifestyle, food and technology retailers would trade from the sites at 277 and 309 Broadway, the statement said.
The stores will include Chemist Warehouse, Beauty & Beyond, Dangerfield, Bras N Things, Cosmetic Clinic, 2 Degrees, Spark, The Coffee Club, Hulu Cat, Amore Gelato and EB Games. A Countdown supermarket and big new multiplex will also open on the site later this year. Miles said this the opening marked a key date in the project's history. Scentre has previously announced the first shops will open in this year's third quarter with the remainder expected to open by Christmas.

What it feels like speaking with a MAGA American:
Me: “Your total is $44.19. Cash or card?”
The customer hands me a credit card but the chip inside it has been hole-punched out.
Me: “Uh, I don’t think this will work.”
Customer: “Why not? It hasn’t expired and I have money in my account.”
Me: “Sir… the chip is gone.”
Customer: “I didn’t want the chip.”
Me: “The card won’t work without it.”
Customer: “It just means I can’t enter my PIN, but you can still swipe it.”
Me: “I don’t think it will work, sir.”
Customer: “Just swipe it.”
I swipe it to prove a point.
Me: “It’s not working, sir.”
Customer: “Then you’re doing it wrong. Swipe it again!”
I do so again with the same result.
Customer: “Maybe you should swipe it so that the magnetic strip isn’t the thing being swiped?”
Me: *Swiping it as suggested.* “Sure, why not? About as much chance of it going through without the magnetic strip as there is without the chip – oh look, it didn’t work.”
Customer: “Your machine must be broken!”
