Rael Polivnick, a South African entrepreneur and Australian resident, met the owner on a plane shortly after it opened, and this chance meeting led to him opening a store at Bondi Beach in 1985. Polivnick settled on a franchising model as the best way of growing the business, and the first franchised store was opened in 1990. _Source: Find Christchurch, 2024._ ## The ground it stands on _Facts about the spot, not the business, from the council and ECan layers._ - **District Plan zone:** Town centre zone _(District Plan)_ - **Commercial centre:** Riccarton, district centre _(District Plan)_ - **Address record:** [125 Riccarton Road](https://www.chch.live/riccarton/125-riccarton-road), 2 reports on file ## What stood on riccarton road [1900, Riccarton Road, Christchurch](https://www.canterburystories.nz/collections/photohunt/2014/ccl-cs-28533) _From Canterbury Stories.
