The Bayfair Redevelopment saw 11,000m² added to the Mount Maunganui shopping centre, including a supermarket, a bigger retail precinct, alfresco dining, a new cinema complex and parking.

The 3-year project, begun in 2017, was undertaken while the existing shopping centre remained fully operational.

Timeframes for each stage were tight, and public safety and ensuring retailers could continue trading were critical factors in the overall success of this project.
