Our Story

Big Save opened its first store in Paraparaumu in 1973, founded on the common-sense ideals of exceptional customer service and excellent value for money. The name reflects our promise: a ‘Big’ selection where you can always ‘Save’ heaps. Today, we continue to uphold these simple values, blending tradition with innovation to curate a beautiful collection of furniture and beds that resonates with New Zealanders.

Our buyers travel across New Zealand and around the world to work with skilled craftsmen, sourcing furniture that helps everyone decorate their homes in their own unique style.

We understand that life is busy, and you shouldn’t have to wait for furniture or beds. That’s why we have three large warehouses located throughout New Zealand, stocked full of furniture and beds.
We know that having stock on hand is a crucial part of delivering a seamless and satisfying customer experience.

At Big Save, our journey into whiteware began with one key insight from two years of research and customer feedback: confusion was the biggest barrier to buying. So, we set out to change that with one clear goal — simplicity.

At the heart of our strategy is a simplified approach that makes shopping easier for our customers. We’ve partnered with trusted brands like Beko, Panasonic, and Samsung to curate a streamlined product range that’s easy to shop, easy to understand, and easy for our team to support.
