Chequer group's two companies, chequer packaging and astron plastics, were sold to a consortium of the anz bank and private investors three years ago. But the recent closure of chequer group's chequer packaging company that operated from premises christian louboutin soldes on adjoining sites at ross reid place and zelanian drive, east tamaki, has been heart wrenching for founders paul halford and rod sullivan, who started the business from scratch in 1980. Halford says it's been difficult watching the plant and equipment being sold and the property's three bustling buildings containing film extrusion plant, printing presses and converting plants that employed 120 people grind to a halt and become eerily silent. The properties at 26 and 27 ross reid place and 44 zelanian drive are being sold or leased by private treaty closing on october 18 through colliers international industrial director charles cooper and broker greg goldfinch. The vacant properties and development land, which cover 2.5ha across three titles, can be bought individually or as one parcel.At the 1.4ha 27 Ross Reid Place address is the property's main building containing 447sq m ground floor offices, 296sq m first floor offices, 2809sq m of warehousing, 259sq m of mezzanine storage, a 1302sq m detached warehouse and about 3900sq m of development land.

Cooper says the properties, at the end of two culsdesac, sit in a premium industrial precinct with a number of wellknown companies nearby, including robinson industries, goode industrial and fisher paykel appliances. Halford and sullivan bought the bare land in the late 1980s when the area was predominantly rural and the manufacturing business was in its infancy. They had started out in rented premises and wanted to own their own real estate. Halford said the business would have expanded over time to cover the entire site if they had kept it. The original building was erected using timber laminated beams. "It was cheaper than using steel girders and we carried on the theme through to the extension,"Says halford. When the original bay went up, the property was landscaped with native plants and coffee bean spoil was used as mulch. When halford and sullivan arrived for work on the first day the premises were surrounded by cows attracted by the smell. Chequer packaging flourished at the site it was the company that converted supermarkets from paper to plastic bags. When the labour government introduced gst and stopped the sales tax regime, plastic bags became competitive and chaussures louboutin soldes 2013 took off, said halford.Before that, supermarket shopping bags with a handle attracted 20 per cent sales tax and those without a handle no tax. The company moved out of the supermarket bag business when it became more competitive for clients to source product from asia.As niche manufacturers and marketers, chequer packaging moved into standup reclosable pouches for a variety of products and christian louboutin pompes soldes clients. Chequer packaging resisted moving its manufacturing offshore, but it became more obvious some products needed to be sourced from asian countries in particular because of price demands from customers.
