A pair of suburban retail premises in high-profile locations, with pizza outlets as their tenants, has been placed on the market.

The two South Auckland properties, featured in Bayleys’ latest Total Property portfolio magazine, are occupied by two of the big names in New Zealand’s pizza scene – Pizza Hutt and Sal’s – and are being sold independently of each other.

The first property is a block of shops at 126 Bairds Rd in Otara – with Pizza Hutt as the middle tenancy, flanked by a vacant tenancy that used to house a beauty parlour and a chemist shop.

The single-level block is being marketed for sale through Bayleys Manukau and brokers Tony Chaudhary, Amy Weng, and Scott Kirk with tenders closing at noon on Thursday August 8.

A third retail premises in the block previously housed a beauty parlour but is vacant. The owner of the property is, however, in discussions with a potential new tenant, and is prepared to under-write a four-year lease at $45,000 per annum plus GST as part of the sale offering.

Other neighbouring retail sites in the immediate vicinity included Dollar Dealers, Eazy Finance and the Roast Shop.

The second pizza-related property for sale houses a 144sq m Sal’s pizza outlet built in the early 2000s as part of an elongated-shaped retail hub facing onto one of South Auckland’s busiest main arterial routes.

The property is being marketed through salespeople James Chan and Oscar Kuang for sale by auction at 11am on Wednesday August 7 through Bayleys Auckland.
