    A key part of Christchurch's business community has gone into voluntary administration

    A key part of Christchurch's business community has gone into voluntary administration


    Administrators are carrying out an urgent assessment of Smiths City - which was founded in 1918.

    Business Canterbury chief executive Leeann Watson says it's sad news for Christchurch.

    She says these types of announcements have a ripple effect and will not help with business confidence.
