Arthurs Emporium has been a family business based in Whangarei for the last 37 years. From a small market stall at the local flea market the business has grown to a large store and several warehouses, importing a vast range of goods from a variety of overseas markets. It was started by Arthur and Jen Brasting and has now expanded to a staff of fifteen full-time employees working to bring bargains

to the people of Whangarei and the rest of the far north. However, with the introduction of new technology, and after a few years of dabbling in the trade-me market we plan to make our bargains available to the rest of the country.

🥶 RARE NORTHLAND EVENT: ACTUAL FROST INCOMING 🥶

Look, we know, we know — Whangarei doesn’t really “do” winter. But Mother Nature’s throwing us a curveball this week and there might just be ice on the windscreen for a hot minute (well, cold minute).

We’ve got Tellico Premium De-Icer in stock — because when it happens once a year, you want to be ready, not scraping your windscreen with a Warehouse gift card like an animal.

✅ Sorts frozen windshields, locks & doors
✅ Stops the fog before it starts
✅ 10oz cans, ready to grab

You’ve basically got a 2-day window to actually need this before it’s back to jandals and 22 degrees — so swing into Arthur’s Emporium now while the frost lasts (and honestly, while we’ve still got stock of something Whangarei doesn’t usually need 😂).

First frost of the year waits for no one. Get in quick!

🚨 BIG NEWS (literally) 🚨

We’ve just had a van load of GIANT plant pots roll into Arthur’s Emporium – and when we say giant, we mean GIANT. 75cm wide, 160L capacity… basically a spa pool for your veggies 🌱

Don’t believe us? We had to get a staff member to hop in for scale 😂 (she’s fine, we got her out… eventually)

Perfect for:
🌳 Trees & big shrubs
🍅 The serious veggie growers
🌺 Making a statement on the deck or patio

Limited stock as always – once they’re gone, they’re gone! Pop into the store in Whangarei and grab yours before the neighbours beat you to it.

🛞 WHEELY GOOD NEWS, WHANGAREI! 🛞
We've gone and done it again — chocka new stock of wheels and castors just landed at Arthur's Emporium, and the wall is looking absolutely loaded!
Whether you're after pneumatic tyres for the wheelbarrow, heavy-duty castors for a trolley, swivel castors for the workshop, or just need to replace that one wheel that's been squeaking since 2019 — we've got you sorted. Red ones, blue ones, black ones, even bright orange if you're feeling fancy 🧡
From tiny little fixed castors right up to the big tractor caster swivels, there's something here for every job. Axles, castor cups, tire tubes — the whole kit and caboodle.
📍 Pop in and see the wall of wheels for yourself — photos genuinely don't do it justice.
Arthur's Emporium — keeping Whangarei rolling since forever. 😉
