Z Energy is opening the first Habitual Fix on a highway at the Bombay stop-over, south of Auckland.
Habitual Fix opened on November 13 in the new Z Bombay service station at the Bombay Motorway Service Centre. It is a common stop-over point for commuters and holiday makers.
Z’s retail general manager Andy Baird says these commuters driving through should have a healthier option.
“The upwards of 40,000 vehicles driving north and south on this stretch of motorway every day will now have a choice to get fresh, healthy food quickly instead of the traditional fast food highway options on offer nearby,” Baird says.
“Anyone who has been stuck in Auckland traffic knows you don’t get free of it until you’re over the Bombay Hills. With the new Habitual Fix and Z on the southern side of the road, Aucklanders can get to the end of the motorway, take a breather knowing they’ve passed the traffic, refresh and get on their way home, or off on holiday.”
Baird says New Zealanders have been wanting healthier choices when they’re on the go, and the Kiwi Habitual Fix is known for its fresh salads, sandwiches and smoothies.
“Demand for quick options in stop-overs like Bombay is unabating. People shouldn’t have to choose between fast and healthy, so we’ve paired up with Habitual Fix to offer a solution in this busy spot.”
The new Z Bombay is in its first week, where customers can access to ZExpress barista coffee, a NZ Post depot, and fuel from Z. The site will employ 15 people.
“Now at Z Bombay when people fuel up their vehicles for their journeys, they can fuel their bodies with healthy food too.”
Baird says the Z Bombay is now open in time for summer, situated at the gateway to Hamilton Bay of Plenty and the Coromandel.
“Habitual Fix is available for the tens of thousands of holiday makers heading in and out of Auckland on roadies this summer.”
