Tauranga-based success story Generation Homes is defying the economic slump and opening five new offices throughout New Zealand.
The expansion includes the company's first venture into the South Island, where it will help with the rebuilding of Christchurch.
Once its final office and showhome opens by the end of October, it will bring the number of joint venture partnerships to 15, leaving Hawke's Bay as the only gap in its coverage of the North Island.
The rapidly-growing company was founded 15 years ago by Graham Hockly and David Mansel, and has now built almost 2000 homes in 100 North Island communities.
Generation Homes' latest expansion phase saw an office opened in Manukau last week, with further openings planned for West Auckland and an office to service Coromandel and Waikato's Waipa District.
