Meet Bonded NZ. The full story.

Kiwi-owned, Manurewa-based, team of four doing the work that matters most, getting claims paid when they need to be.

Bonded looks after small and medium businesses across the country, from one-person operators to companies with vehicle fleets. Materials, business interruption, liability, motor. And because they own their own finance vehicle, clients can spread payments over 10 to 12 months.

Behind the business are Tony and Rich, part of a team that backs local sport as much as local business. Sponsors of the Bay Roskill Vikings, the Manurewa Marlins and Papakura Rugby.

Keen for a chat about your cover? Head to Southmall in Manurewa or bonded.co.nz.

Some of the best Manurewa stories are the ones happening quietly in the background.

Meet the Bonded NZ team. A locally-owned insurance broker based right here in Manurewa, backing our community and doing the kind of work that makes a place feel like home.

Leading the charge is Tony Parkes, MBA Chair and Managing Director at Bonded NZ. A proper example of what happens when Manurewa businesses back Manurewa people.

Nineteen years in the game. Locally-grounded. Independent. And genuinely built around doing right by their clients and their community.

Big shout-out to the whole team for the mahi.

Keep an eye out next week for the full story, video dropping soon.

MANUREWA COMMUNITY SPOTLIGHT

Did you know Manurewa has one of the most complete car wash facilities in South Auckland?

TJ's Car Wash on Weymouth Road is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week — so whether it is a Sunday morning or a late Friday night, a clean car is always on the cards.

Self-serve bays, automatic machines, an oversized bay for trucks and campervans and industrial vacuums. But the one that always gets people — they have a dog wash too.

15 Weymouth Road, Manurewa. Open 24/7.

Watch the video and drop a comment below — did you know about the dog wash?

Have you tried Ambers Roast! We nominated Ambers Roast because we think the roast here with their "home made gravy" style is simply the best. Give them a taste, you'll be going back for more! 214 Great South rd! 👌

The early morning workouts are just the beginning.

Every Wednesday, after the 6am PT session, 36 Manurewa students sit down together for something just as important — mentorship. Real conversations, real guidance and real investment in who these young people are becoming.

Now in its 8th year the Bluelight JAM Programme is not just building fitter young people. It is building more confident, more connected and more resilient members of our community. And it starts before most of us have had our first coffee.

This programme runs with the support of Auckland Council, the Manurewa Business Association, Love Somebody Charitable Trust and our local high schools — Manurewa, Alfriston and Te Haikura a Kiwa JC.

Later this year the students and their families will come together for a Graduation and Prizegiving to celebrate everything they have achieved. We are looking for local businesses to donate prizes or vouchers for the night — spot prizes, gift cards, products, anything at all is appreciated.

If your business can help please reach out to us via the MBA page or contact the Bluelight JAM team directly.

This is Manurewa investing in its own. Tag someone who should know about this programme.

There are a lot of great businesses across Manurewa and South Auckland quietly doing the hard work every day without much recognition.

The 2026 2degrees Auckland Business Awards are now open, and this is a good opportunity for local businesses to step forward, reflect on what they’ve built, and get recognised for the work they do in their communities and industries.

Whether you run a café, retail store, trade business, service business, or something completely different, there are categories open to businesses of all kinds.

Businesses can also be nominated by others, so if there’s a local business you think deserves recognition, now’s a good time to back them.

Entry is free.

There are a range of categories, including the People’s Choice Award, which is always a great opportunity for local businesses to rally community support.

Be honest — how often are your staff dealing with difficult customers lately?

It’s something a lot of local retailers are seeing more of, but it doesn’t always get talked about.

There’s a new nationwide survey looking at customer behaviour in the workplace, and it’s a chance for people on the front line to share what’s actually happening day to day.

It only takes a few minutes, and it’s completely anonymous — but the more people who take part, the clearer the picture becomes.

Closes 31 May 2026.
