🛒 Thursday Spotlight of the Week – Franz Josef Four Square 🛒

This Thursday, we're shining the spotlight on Franz Josef Four Square, a business that's a big part of our local community.

It's more than just a place to grab the groceries. The team are always willing to put their hand up and support local clubs, groups and community events, and it's that kind of community spirit that makes a real difference in a small town. The Four Square has a long-standing reputation for getting behind the people and organisations that make Franz Josef what it is.

One of my personal favourites has to be the A&P Show Grocery Grab, always a bit of fun and a great example of the Four Square getting behind a local event! 🛒

So this Thursday, if you're heading through Franz Josef, pop in, grab what you need and support a local business that continues to support our community.

Thanks to the team at Franz Josef Four Square for everything you do for our little corner of the Coast! 👏

🍻 Spotlight of the Week – The White Pub, Fox Glacier 🍻

This week's spotlight is on a true local favourite – The White Pub in Fox Glacier.

A great spot to pull up for a cold drink, a good feed and a yarn, with a relaxed West Coast atmosphere that makes you feel right at home.

The team are always welcoming, the hospitality is on point, and it's another local business that plays an important part in keeping our small communities ticking.

🍽️ My recommendation? Grab yourself a good pub feed, settle in with a drink and enjoy the atmosphere. You can't beat a classic West Coast pub experience.

If you're in Fox Glacier, make sure you call in and support the team at The White Pub. 🍻
