PACIFIKA VARIETY AND FABRICS LIMITED (Manukau Variety)

I was prepared to spend up to 1000s of dollars at this store for bridal party dresses. The owner of the store starting showing us fabric when we asked for some help, she then out of the blue spiralled into a rant about covid lockdowns and labour government. She stated the lockdown was wrong and not needed, because of the effect it has on business. As a registered nurse who was on the frontline of covid, I found it extremely insulting. I was there to buy fabric and instead had misinformation shoved down my throat. None of my party mentioned covid, it was brought up by the owner as one of us was wearing a mask. It was extremely unnecessary, aggressive and in our faces. On that note, the only thing that lost this woman business today was not the covid lockdown, it was herself, her bad attitude and poor customer service.

Great collection of unstitched fabric, from casual to formal and fancy.
