New Zealand: Waitomo Group opens new site in Papamoa
Located on Te Puke Highway, the unmanned 24-hour fuel stop will offer retail and commercial customers Unleaded 91, Premium 95 and Diesel
Hamilton-based fuel supplier Waitomo Group rolls out its first fuel Stop in Papamoa – its third expansion this year.
Waitomo Group Manging Director Jimmy Ormsby says exponential commercial and population growth in the area over the last few years made Papamoa an attractive option for expansion.
“Where there’s Kiwis who want top performance and a fairer price for their fuel, Waitomo will be there. It’s the same formula our 100 per cent family-owned and operated business has operated on for the last 70 years to fuel Kiwi success," says Ormsby.
Waitomo also operates a fuel stop in Mount Maunganui, and has recently opened a site in Rotorua. Further Waitomo fuel stops in Wellington, Upper Hutt and Christchurch will open later this year.
“For a family-owned, Kiwi business, we’re sure creating some big waves around the country with our Waitomo price. That’s how we like it. Our success is built on Kiwi support. Wherever we expand, the response has been amazing and we’re committed to returning the favour to our customers with our everyday low Waitomo price," added Ormsby.
As with all new Waitomo gas stations, the pumps on site are fitted with vapour recovery technology, a system not widely used in New Zealand.
Established in Te Kuiti more than 70 years ago by Desmond Ormsby, Waitomo Group now has 60 sites stretching from Paihia to Foxton.
