Supermarket shopping in Auckland is a personal affair—everyone's in charge of their own cart, inspecting fresh veggies, checking the meat, and judging homeware. But the real joy? Finding top-notch quality without breaking the bank.
Meet the trio of supermarkets making waves: LianHua Supermarket at 79 Wakefield Street, Auckland CBD; The Home Hub by LianHua at 93 Dominion Road, Mount Eden; and an upcoming LianHua supermarket opening during Black Friday weekend at 27 Bute Road, Browns Bay. These stores are not just growing their customer base but also giving back to the community.
Beyond fresh groceries, teas, snacks, and homeware, all three are actively supporting a donation campaign for Hato Hone St John Ambulance. Shoppers can contribute at checkout, bridging the funding gap for this vital service. A spokesperson summed it up: "Eery dollar counts. Supporting Hato Hone St John is our way of giving back to the community."
The Home Hub: A Customer Favourite on the Rise
The Home Hub has quickly become a standout, gaining strong support from Indian, Filipino, and Chinese communities. Established earlier this year, it has gained rapid popularity for its focus on household products. With its flagship store on Dominion Road, The Home Hub is already planning expansions into Browns Bay and South Auckland.

Offering over 5,000 homeware items—from ceramic crockery to plastic kitchenware—The Home Hub balances affordability with excellent service. Conveniently located near Sandringham, the store’s ample parking and transport links make it a preferred shopping destination.
Fundraising Beyond the Checkout
As part of its donation campaign, The Home Hub is hosting a three-week BBQ series to raise additional funds for Hato Hone St John Ambulance. These events have already drawn generous support, with the final BBQ scheduled next week at the Dominion Road store.
