The addition of Waipapa to our branch network reflects Bidfood’s ongoing commitment to investing in regional communities and ensuring that every customer, no matter where they are based, has access to the same high level of service, quality, and product range. Situated in the heart of the Bay of Islands, the Waipapa branch will serve as a central hub for foodservice businesses across the Far North - from restaurants and cafes to tourism operators, accommodation providers, and healthcare facilities.

This new location will help us strengthen our partnerships with businesses across the area and play a role in supporting the ongoing development of the local economy.

The opening of Waipapa represents more than just a new location, it’s a reflection of Bidfood’s ongoing vision to deliver exceptional service and quality nationwide. Each new branch strengthens our ability to connect customers with the products they need, when they need them, while staying true to our mission of supporting New Zealand’s foodservice industry.
