New Good Guys store

Australian appliance retailer The Good Guys is opening its second store in New Zealand at Botany Downs on July 15.

Its first store opened in Wairau Park in May. A third store in Manukau will open on September 29.

The company, which was founded in 1952, has 92 stores in Australia.

The retail chain runs a joint-venture partner model where a local "Good Guy" owns and runs the store.

Fisher & Paykel Appliances are stocked alongside competitor brands.

Fisher & Paykel Appliances said in May that it would give up exclusive dealer arrangements with New Zealand retailers from July 1.

The distribution arrangement had lasted for 50 years.
