Four Square Awapuni is a neighbourhood supermarket at 149 Maxwells Line in Awapuni, Palmerston North. It is owned and operated by Margaret and Vijay Patel, who have run it since 1989. The website says Vijay goes out of his way to source any product a customer asks for, and that a long-serving staff member has been there since the store opened.
Shoppers say the staff are always friendly and helpful. They praise the wide range of groceries and the pies, sushi and bakery food, and they mention the variety of products and the fresh produce. One describes it as a community store. The store also has a Four Square specials page and a shopping-list app that can translate the list into te reo Māori.
Within a kilometre, Alexander Street Food Market is 0.7 km away, rated 4.5 from 10 reviews. Of the two supermarkets on Open Locally with 10 or more reviews, neither rates higher than this one.
