NZ ’ S FIRST GIVI STORE OPENS DOORS

New Zealand ’ s first official Givi store has opened its doors in New Plymouth , with the store offering more than just a comprehensive stockpile of the Italian firm ’ s wide array of products . New Zealand ’ s distributor of Givi , Eurobike Wholesale , is one of the brand ’ s longest-serving distributors in the world , yet it has taken nearly 40 years for the brand to get its own flagship store here in New Zealand . As the Mainland Cheese ads say , good things take time . “ Eurobike Wholesale has been representing Givi in New Zealand for close to 40 years , with a starting story of near epic proportions ,” says Rodney O ’ Connor , General Manager of Eurobike Wholesale . “ Only one other distributor in the entire world has been with Givi longer than us , so it is very exciting to finally have a dedicated Givi showroom in New Zealand . Based in New Plymouth , not only will you be able to see and try most of the Givi range , but our staff can be available to help with all your questions , no matter how simple , or complicated . Givi has a huge range of solutions and it can be daunting trying to work out which will suit you best . Our showroom , experience , and knowledge will help you make the right choice , the first time .” Branded as a ‘ Givi Specialised ’ store , the dedicated space on New Plymouth ’ s Gill Street will show the range of Givi products from commuter top boxes to large touring sets , soft luggage , tank bags , crash protection , screens and other accessories . Givi is one of those companies that has such a huge range of products , that sometimes it ’ s hard to know where to begin . Having a dedicated space to show off the range will not only help distributor ’ s Eurobike Wholesale , but expert staff will be able to help riders find the right equipment for their needs . This can be done either at scheduled times viewable on the Eurobike website , or riders can book a free oneon-one consultation to find the perfect fit-out for their motorcycle .

Whether you ’ re not sure to go with hard luggage or soft , or wondering how much can you fit in a top case , nothing beats seeing and touching products in person and getting advice from the experts . The showroom is based in New Plymouth - if you ’ re from out of town , this is a great location for a weekend getaway with the store open until 5:30pm weekdays and 1:00pm on Saturdays .
