Briscoes build underway

Five years after Briscoe Group purchased the site in Millwater Parkway next to Farmers, bulldozers are finally beginning earthworks there.

Auckland Council granted resource consent for the project in November 2017.

The consented plan includes a Briscoes, Rebel Sport and two retail tenancies.

Briscoe Group head of property Kelly Galbraith says that the Briscoes and Rebel stores should create between 30–40 new jobs combined.

The estimated completion of the project will be around Easter next year.

Briscoe Group is the parent company of Briscoes Homeware, Rebel Sport and Living and Giving.
