Future bleak for Lambton Quay business

Reporter Community News

What is the future of businesses on Lambton Quay?

Two well known business have indicated they are struggling and Eftpos transactions are down 19 percent from the same time last year.

Wellington City councillor Simon Woolf says the outlook for Wellington’s Lambton Quay is so bad he is moving his family photography business from the street after more than 60 years.

Sam Cranfield, whose wife Val established the Cranfields gift store now situated off Lambton Quay, told councillors at a meeting on Thursday the couple were liable for $750,000 if the business went bust, something he was very concerned would happen.
