A store in Tauranga's CBD has temporarily closed its doors from today after concerns about earthquake safety.
The Devonport Rd Spark store is expected to be closed for weeks.
A statement released by the telecommunications company said it was in the process of a nationwide audit and found the store did not satisfy Spark's policy standard for earthquake resiliency.
The store has been temporarily closed "for the safety of our staff and customers".
"Our policy standard is more stringent than government building requirements, so we are making this closure by choice rather than by necessity," the statement read.
