Stevens Homewares

That's what keeps us young at heart! We're a family-owned company first established in 1924, when we opened our first household hardware & kitchen appliance store in Karangahape Road, Auckland called Henry Stevens Limited. Henry's two sons, Owen and Spencer joined the business in the 1930's and served their apprenticeship until called up for active... service during the Second World War. In 1946 Owen and Spencer took over the business as Stevens Bros Limited and over the next eight years two more stores were opened. By the time Stevens celebrated 50 years in the importing / retail profession in 1976, we had ten stores. It was that time that Owen and Spencer handed over the company's management to the third generation of Stevens sons - Barry, Warren, and Mark. In 1986, we opened our first store outside the Auckland region in Whangarei, followed by expansion into Hamilton and Wellington over the next four years. We were known as "Stevens for Gifts", with a focus on dining, collectables and gifts for the homeRead More
