JB Hi-Fi Invercargill took out the Store of the Year 2026, with a combination of results, culture and growth putting them at the top of their game nationwide.

Regional manager Tony Keay said at its annual National awards in September they also awarded Rizza as the Invercargill Store Rockstar, nominated by her peers.

Rizza has been with JB Hi-Fi Invercargill since they opened in Invercargill Central back in 2024, recently moving up within the Operations team to become Operations Co-ordinator.

Tony said her leadership and ongoing team support is one of the many reasons her colleagues nominated her for this award. 

Southland Business Account Manager Phil was also awarded Commercial Team Rockstar for 2026. 

The Invercargill store won Quality of Sale award in 2025 and the goal for the team this year was to take out the national award.

“It has been a very proud moment."

Tony said winning Store of the Year wasn’t possible without the ongoing support of the Invercargill/Southland community, Invercargill Central Mall and What's on Invers “helping us grow and giving us the opportunity to be a place to visit and trust us to put the best package together for you every time.”

“We always try to bring the newest most exciting new products to the market and have our knowledge and passion for what we do stand out so our customers leave thinking - "JB Hi-Fi - You've done it again.”
