Surfside Mall is a florist operating from the Surfside Mall complex in New Brighton, Christchurch. As a mall-based floristry outlet it serves shoppers and local residents looking for flowers and related floral products in the coastal suburb.

As a florist, Surfside Mall provides typical floristry services and products expected from a local flower shop, drawing on the general category offerings for florists. The shop is positioned to supply floral arrangements, bouquets and gift flowers to customers visiting the mall or living nearby.

Customer feedback shows a mixed picture, with an average rating of 3.3. Some customers comment positively on the service, describing staff interactions as helpful. Other reviewers raise concerns about tidiness or presentation of the store environment. These recurring themes indicate variable customer experiences rather than a uniformly consistent pattern.

Locally, Surfside Mall is distinguished by its location within the central mall in New Brighton, making it convenient for passersby and regular shoppers.

01Google listingMarketbase business report

Your Google listing

Surfside Mall's Google Business Listing shows a low health score with key updates needed. Strengths include a complete street address and a main image, giving customers a basic sense of location and appearance. The most important findings are the lack of a website link, unclaimed status, and missing phone number, which limit customer access and trust.

Strengths

  • ✓
    Open statusYour listing shows the business as trading, so customers see accurate availability and Google treats the listing as live.
  • ✓
    NameYour business name is showing on the listing, so a customer searching for you by name finds you, and everything else on the listing hangs off it.
  • ✓
    AddressYour listing carries an address, so the directions button works and Google can match you to searches for your suburb.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    ClaimedYour listing is not claimed, which means anyone can suggest an edit to it and you have no way to reply to a review or correct what is shown.
  • 2
    WebsiteYour listing has no website link, so a customer who wants to check your prices or your work before ringing has nowhere to go from Google.
  • 3
    PhoneYour listing has no phone number, so the call button a customer expects to tap is not there and the ones in a hurry ring someone else.

Your reviews

Surfside Mall shows a very low health score on Google reviews, indicating limited review volume and engagement. The strongest signal is steady rating growth and a missing response rate, with opportunities to improve in responding to reviews and encouraging more feedback.

    Review confidenceRating and review volume together sit well behind this market, which means a customer comparing you has both halves of the picture reading thin.

Where you show up on the map

Surfside Mall shows a very low health score in Google Maps search at 1.1 out of 10, indicating limited visibility. The standout findings are that the business ranks well for core terms such as florist in new brighton (position 3) and dried flower shop in new brighton (position 12), but overall local presence remains weak and needs improvement.

Where customers find you

Surfside Mall shows a low overall health score for social presence at 2.0/10, indicating limited visibility and trust across key profiles. The strongest current achievement is a highly trusted Facebook presence, with ongoing need to broaden presence on other platforms to improve discovery and credibility among customers and mall visitors.

Strengths

  • ✓
    Having a Facebook page at allWe found your Facebook Profile page, and the trail is strong enough that nobody would question it is yours - it is linked from something you own, or it dominates a search for your name.

Your Facebook page

Strengths

  • ✓
    A street addressA street address sits in your page details, so someone deciding between you and a business two suburbs over can see which of you is closer.
  • ✓
    A cover photoYour page opens with a cover photo rather than a blank banner, so the first impression a visitor gets is your own work.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    A page address you choseYour page address is one Facebook generated rather than one you chose - your business name with a long number bolted on, or just the number.
  • 2
    Recommendations on your pageA couple of recommendations have landed on the page, fewer than most here.
  • 3
    A phone numberNo phone number is published on your Facebook page, so someone who found you there and wants to ring has to go hunting elsewhere or send a message and wait.

08Opening hoursMarketbase business report

Your hours against demand

Surfside Mall currently has no recorded opening hours, so no hours can be confirmed as matching high-demand windows. This means there is no visible strong alignment with peak florist search times, and likely missed opportunities when local demand is high. The main practical step is to publish accurate opening hours and then align those hours with local demand patterns to capture more foot traffic and online searches.
