The group owns retail franchises Four Square, New World and Pak'nSave, in - store private labels Pam's and Budget, and a ten percent stake in The Warehouse . The effective duopoly in New Zealand's supermarket industry means that Foodstuffs' only real competitor is Australian supermarket chain Progressive Enterprises . </P> <P> The first Foodstuffs co-operative was formed in Auckland in 1922 . On 6 July 1922, Foodstuffs founder J Heaton Barker called together members of the Auckland Master Grocers' Association to discuss plans for the formation of a co-operative buying group . The buying group expanded in 1925 with the introduction of Four Square branding on members' stores . Similar co-operatives were set up in other parts of the country, with Wellington commencing also in 1922, Christchurch in 1928 and Dunedin in 1948 . Initially the buying groups traded under different names but in 1935, the name Foodstuffs was applied to all the original co-operatives . </P>
