We normally wouldn’t post this on here but New Year, New Us. We will not tolerate anymore disrespect.
While we have been fortunate enough to reach 2025 with no robberies or hold-ups, we are no stranger to the odd petty theft.
Today at 11am, the lil guy in the white jumper ran in and took two 600ml coke bottles whilst Paeru & Rick were on-shift. Unluckily for the kids, two of our regular customers saw the ordeal.
If you recognise the kids in this photo please report and keep your distance. They roll in big groups and are new to the area. They are likely tied to the happenings around here in the last two/three months too.
As a dairy, we do not discriminate and treat everyone fairly. As we should be.
& As a whanau, we are big enough to protect each other. However, when our kaumatua are constantly being targeted by these teens who we know are not long-time locals - That is where you are in deep waters.
We acknowledge that a lot of the youth aren’t dealt a good hand and empathise from our observations being the local corner store. If it’s anything this dairy will give you; it’s grace.
Please do not mistake our kindness for weakness. The authorities will be involved.
