The Food Factory Shop 239 Stanmore Road, Richmond, Christchurch, Canterbury 8013

"Was suggested to shop there as products are very reasonable. Vegetables, fruit, sweets and alot of other produce. Apparently that changes most days as they are supplied with whatever is available at the time. Very reasonable pricing."

"Good variety of food items, bulk buying or individual but many of their prices are the same in a regular supermarket. Depends, I guess, on what one wants .... Plenty of parking at rear of premises. Clean and tidy and good interaction with staff."

"Can’t always guarantee what is going to be available but the prices are so good compared to the supermarket! Good to stock up on frozen fruit. They always have slice options and frozen finger foods"

"Great place to buy reasonably priced factory seconds. Most of the food is frozen which is convenient to go directly into your freezer at home. There are a good selection of frozen veggies (cut and prepared already) as well as pies, pizza, cakes, oven-food like hash-browns and samosas, chicken and fish that is battered and crumbed, chicken nuggets, sausages etc. All that standard stuff. There’s another section with dry-goods and slices, cakes and broken biscuits and factory seconds lollies. A reasonable selection of additional things that are also worth checking out too! Parking on-site is handy and everything is as you would expect. Prices are pretty reasonable when compared to other similar shops!"

"An interesting range of food at good prices. Love that they're open on Sundays til 5pm. I've visited only twice but both times staff were cleaning or rearranging items and completely in the way - oblivious to customers trying to shop. Also found it frustrating that some signage/price tags were mixed up or missing."
