Foodstuffs North Island is vowing to clean up its act. Â
A Commerce Commission report's found anti-competitive behaviour and excess profits were some of the main issues with the grocery sector.Â
In response, the supermarket chain which owns New World, Pak'nSave and Four Square, says it'll release their land covenants that stopped competitors setting up at certain locations. Â
