The Base

It is now New Zealand’s Largest Shopping Centre and Australia’s only true hybrid mall. The Base large format offers 78 stores with over 49,000 square metres of retail trading space, the Waikato’s only outlet mall and major retailers including The Warehouse, Briscoes, Number 1 Shoes, Bond + Bond, Rebel Sport, Heathcote Appliances and Mitre 10 Mega that cater for all your shopping needs. To add to that in they have just completed the ground floor to their new fully enclosed shopping centre called Te Awa. With 94 stores, cutting edge Carpark Management System and Waikato Tainui designed architecture and Te Awa, The Base is a unique shopping experience. The fact that Te Awa was eventually settled on as a suitable name says much about the centre’s stature, given the very high regard, depth of meaning and significance that Waikato Tainui attach to their Awa Tupuna (ancestral river). This experience is accentuated by the tree canopy — like diffused light and vibrant tiled floor that mirrors the winding current, eddies and calm pools of the centre’s namesake, the Waikato River.
