Help those in need this Christmas by donating new toys and treats
As a family-owned business, we know Christmas can be a difficult season for some. That’s why BFS is joining forces with Wellington City Mission to drive change for good.
You can help us bring a little more joy to a family in Wellington this Christmas and join us to donate new toys and treats at any one of our locations across the Wellington region from Monday 2 December to Sunday 15 December.

- Fill the boot that you’ll see in all of our Railway Ave, Lower Hutt and Kent Terrace, Wellington City showrooms. Lower Hutt is open 7 days a week and the OMODA JAECOO Kent Terrace showroom is open Monday to Saturday.
