He bought stock there and then departed for New Zealand, arriving in Lyttleton in August 1855. He established his business the following year. He was sufficiently successful to open additional stores in Christchurch and Fiji. Reece was a member of the first Christchurch municipal council in 1862. He managed his store until 1879 when he passed the business on to his son, William. He died in 1887.
