The Herald reports:
Wellington’s three Pandoro cafes will today close their doors for the last time after 28 years in business.
Owner Tony Beazley said it’s a sad day for the company having to lay off more than 20 staff across their Willis St, Allan St, and Woodward St stores.
Beazley blames the struggling local economy with more people working from home and moves by Wellington City Council to install cycleways and bus lanes, removing car parking for customers.
What the Council has achieved on a small scale, they will achieve on a large scale with their plans to turn the Golden Mile into a bus lane only.
