MilCIS 2024 728x90NIOA New Zealand has officially opened its new Christchurch headquarters, marking a significant expansion after relocating from Auckland. The new office, warehouse and distribution centre located in Rolleston will serve as the central hub for the company’s New Zealand operations offering enhanced capabilities for its sporting, defence and law enforcement customers throughout the country.

The decision to move the headquarters from Auckland to Christchurch was made last November and is part of NIOA New Zealand’s long-term growth strategy after acquiring the former Sportways wholesaling business in 2022. NIOA has had a strong presence in New Zealand for many years through its support of the New Zealand Defence Force and New Zealand Police.

The new 1130 square metre facility will house administrative offices, distribution services and a high-tech warehouse and stock management system designed to streamline operations. The ceremony was attended by NZPOL Capability Manager Inspector Scott McGill, Royal NZ Police College Tactical Training Program Manager Derek Sarney as well as business leaders from the sporting, hunting and outdoor sectors.

NIOA New Zealand General Manager Fraser Winskill emphasised Christchurch’s strategic importance to the company’s New Zealand growth plans. “The new NIOA facility in Christchurch positions us to better serve the entire New Zealand sporting, law enforcement and military markets,” he said. “We are grateful for the continued support of our loyal customers and key partners and pleased to see such a strong turnout for this milestone. As always, our primary focus is to exceed the high standards they have come to expect from us.”

NIOA Group CEO Rob Nioa said the opening of the new headquarters reflected the company’s confidence in New Zealand. “We are excited about the future and what this new chapter means for our New Zealand customers,” he said. “It is not only a great new facility for Fraser and his team who are committed to driving forward our promise of setting the industry standard for exemplary service, products and outcomes. It’s also an investment in the Christchurch local economy and symbolises our confidence in the future of our New Zealand business and the opportunities it presents.”
