| | | | | Extra info | Alexanders started on the Westcoast during the famous Westland goldrush. The Alexander family moved to the small town of Kaiapoi at the north of Christchurch in 1890. Christchurch people would drive to Kaiapoi to swop-a-crate of empties for full bottles of the famous flavours.
Richard Macdonald bought the brand in 1990 and celebrated a hundred years of continuous business by inviting anyone with the surname Alexander to a party. |
