SPAR Australia celebrates the opening of a locally owned and operated SPAR Supermarket in the Newcastle suburb of Broadmeadow, blending everyday essentials with a unique Korean twist.

The Broadmeadow SPAR Supermarket aims to serve the local community while introducing the flavours and beauty trends of Korea. “We wanted to bring something fresh to the Newcastle community while maintaining the convenience and value that the SPAR network is known for,” said store owner Jayden Park during the grand opening.

The supermarket covers a space of 1,000m² with a full grocery assortment, offering something for everyone. Over 2,000 items are included in SPAR Australia’s payless programme. This initiative provides customers with competitive prices on essentials like fresh produce, pantry staples, and household goods.

The SPAR Supermarket in Broadmeadow provides a unique blend of Korean culture, offering a range of groceries, cosmetics, and freshly prepared Korean food-to-go, which has been well received by customers.

SPAR Australia’s Managing Director, Lou Jardin, welcomed Jayden and Claire Park into the SPAR family. “We’re thrilled to welcome Jayden and Claire Park to the SPAR family with the opening of their Broadmeadow store,” said Lou Jardin. “Their unique vision of incorporating Korean products alongside SPAR Australia’s everyday offerings is a perfect example of the innovation and diversity we encourage within our network. We look forward to seeing their success in bringing a fresh and exciting shopping experience to the local community.”
