When you're purchasing your groceries at Stratford New World, there's a chance you may have them scanned by the North Island Checker of the Year.
On Saturday March 14, Brooke Millar was named as the winner at the Foodstuffs North Island Excellence Awards.
Last year, Brooke won the Taranaki Regional Checker of the Year and moved on to the North Island Final where she came second.
The North Island final involved mystery shoppers who travelled to the home stores of the regional finalists to pick a winner.
Owners and operators of New World Stratford, Dan and his wife Rebecca Harris, say they are both proud of Brooke's success.
