Opening the doors to our award-winning showroom

In partnership with our friends at Common Haus, our Lexus of Christchurch team was thrilled to open the doors of our award-winning showroom to host In Pursuit – A Panel Discussion. An exclusive conversation with founders and CEOs from Christchurch, including our very own Aaron Frazer (Lexus of Christchurch CEO), Mary Outram of BONNIE, Sophie Stephens of Mr Robs, and Vickey Small of With Adaline – on what it takes to scale, build, and lead with purpose.

Live music from @offbeatnzl set the tone, while drinks and nibbles from Crisp and Vale Catering kept the energy flowing. Between conversations and new connections, Canapes and Confetti captured every moment worth remembering.

Following networking, the panel brought together four established voices across brand, content, fashion, and entrepreneurship – an opportunity to hear directly from people who have built respected brands, businesses, and platforms in their own right. From the decisions and risks to the challenges and lessons, our Lexus of Christchurch team was thrilled to help facilitate an honest, meaningful, and inspiring conversation.

“At Common Haus, we’re all about curating events and experiences that bring people together in incredible spaces where connection can happen naturally – people who are creative, ambitious, building something, or simply striving for more. We’re incredibly grateful to Aaron and the team at Lexus of Christchurch for opening the showroom to our community and trusting us with the space. Seeing so many people engaged throughout the panel, continuing conversations after and leaving the event feeling inspired is exactly why we do what we do. Thank you for having us.”
