A record pressing plant has opened in New Zealand

A new vinyl factory called Holiday Records has opened in Auckland, New Zealand, reports Newshub – the first in over 30 years.

Launched by Ben Wallace and Joel Woods, the factory has one Viryl Technologies WarmTone™ Record Press, with the ability to make 800 records per day.

‘I got my father’s collection in a box – I don’t want to hand my son a Spotify playlist,’ Wallace shared.

Wallace and Woods have also opened a record shop in central Aukland with the same name, stocking new albums, turntables and tech, merch and books.
