About Us

Window Trendz has been proudly supplying custom-made window furnishings across the Lower North Island for over 35 years.

We’re a family business through and through — originally founded by Barbara and Allan Bennett in 1990, and now owned and operated by their grandson Finn. While the faces may have changed, the same care and commitment to great service remains at the heart of everything we do.

Whether you visit our beautiful Palmerston North showroom or book a free in-home measure and quote, we’re here to make the process easy, enjoyable, and tailored to you. Our team offers friendly, professional service from start to finish.

You’ll find us in the iconic ex-Terrazzo building on the corner of Victoria Ave and Main Street — a spot locals might remember as the longtime home of Van Meer Suits. Today, it’s where you’ll find the largest curtain fabric library in the Manawatū.

Our History

1990 - The beginning

In 1990, Allan and Barbara Bennett, new locals to Palmerston North, established the business known as Window Trendz. The business was first located out of a small retail premises on Princess St.
2002 - The move

After agreeing to engage in a number of medium-scale commercial projects, the Princess St premises was quickly outgrown and the search began for a larger premises. In 2002, the Waldegrave St site was purchased.
2002 - 2020

Throughout 2000-2020 the business was located in Waldegrave Street, and through our showroom we supplied, and installed curtains to many of the regions leading homes and businesses.
2020 - Present

Following a considerable amount of business growth from 2017-2020, in late 2020, the decision was made to re-locate to a large retail premises, centrally located on the Corner of Victoria Ave & Main St, Palmerston North.
