The New Zealand Green Party has proposed the creation of a new state-owned supermarket chain called "KiwiMart" to break the dominance of Foodstuffs and Woolworths in the country's supermarket sector. Under the plan, the two companies would be required to sell 120 stores and two distribution centers to the state. Expected to cost approximately 2.8 billion New Zealand dollars, KiwiMart is initially projected to have a 15% market share.
