And just like that, here in Auckland, we are in our fourth lockdown in less than 12 months. It’s hard to describe the impact for small business retail, but it’s something that is very hard to recover from. In saying that, we are all being effected by this, in one way or another. We’ve all just got to do our best with the hand we are dealt. Our locals are great and the support from around the country is amazing too.
Our sad news is we will be not renewing our lease for our sister store ECHO Designer Living. This lease will end on 31st March 2021. We were planning to have a big “Everything Must Go” SALE from the beginning of March, but just like that we were back in another lockdown. Nevertheless, as soon as we can open our doors to the public again, we will, and everything will be for sale!!
We want to reassure you there is no change to our original store, ECHO Designer Boutique, is here for the long haul, and will have some exciting new additions from 1st April 2021!
