The Cyclopedia of New Zealand [Canterbury Provincial District]

Goode, William Edward

Goode, William Edward, Grocer and Tea-Dealer, 103 Victoria Street, Christchurch. Mr. Goode was born in Warwickshire, England, and arrived in New Zealand in 1874. Educated at the St. Albans and Normal public schools, he was apprenticed to Mr. T. Kincaid, Christchurch, and served as journeyman for a short time after the completion of his term. In 1890, he was branch manager for Mr. Allan Smith in Newtown, Wellington, and afterwards in business for himself in that city for about twelve months, then came to Christchurch and established his present business in 1893. Being thoroughly conversant with the requirements of the trade, and a man of push and enterprise, he has been able to command a large measure of success. Mr. Goode is a direct importer, and has exceptional facilities for buying goods at the very lowest wholesale rates.
