Hesari Supermarket

Hesari Supermarket, at 56 Queens Road, began life as a small Panmure bakery before growing into a specialist international grocery store, giving local families access to pantry staples and specialty ingredients not always found in a standard supermarket.

What Hesari Supermarket stocks for Panmure families

The store specialises in Middle Eastern and international pantry goods, including saffron, dates, tahini, olives, pickles, herbs and spices, rice and flour, and a wide range of teas and coffees. Families cooking a broader range of world cuisines at home, or wanting authentic ingredients for a specific recipe, often find Hesari carries items a general supermarket does not stock. The store also carries household items including glassware, teapots and thermoses, alongside a bakery and dairy section for everyday essentials.

Hesari has grown from its original Panmure bakery roots into a small chain with stores now also in North, West and South Auckland, and the company continues to describe its own journey as one from a single bakery to a wider supermarket business, useful for families interested in supporting a locally grown, family-founded business rather than a large international chain.

Visiting Hesari Supermarket in Panmure

The Panmure store is open every day from 9am to 7pm, giving families a wide window to shop around work, school pickups or weekend errands. Hesari also offers online ordering with delivery, useful for families wanting specialty pantry items without a dedicated in-person trip.

Families with dietary preferences spanning gluten-free, vegan or specific regional cuisines may find Hesari’s own product range covers gaps left by a standard supermarket, worth checking directly for specific items before assuming they are unavailable.

Given its position on Queens Road, a visit to Hesari Supermarket pairs naturally with a wider shopping trip along the same street, including a stop at the related Hesari Bakery a short walk away.

Families new to Panmure and unfamiliar with the store’s own product range are encouraged to ask staff directly for recommendations, since the specialty pantry section can be unfamiliar territory compared with a standard grocery shop.
