    Waimakariri Mayor Dan Gordon believes Rangiora's soon-to-close Bunnings store is a victim of Covid 19

    Waimakariri Mayor Dan Gordon believes Rangiora's soon-to-close Bunnings store is a victim of Covid 19


    Bunnings has blamed poor trading during lockdown for the loss of 145 jobs and seven stores nationally.

    Gordon says Rangiora's store had just been extended.

    Bunnings says stores' leasing arrangements, business performance and location fed into the decision.
