HANZ – Your Organisation

Introduction

The Hospitality Association of New Zealand is a voluntary trade organisation of like-minded businesses and operators in the hospitality sector. The Association is governed by a Board of nine elected members.

The Association offers many wonderful benefits and services and the opportunity to become actively involved and participate at all levels of the organisation.

This may simply be by becoming involved at branch social events, or through standing for office at Branch and National level.

The Hospitality Association is an organisation owned by it’s members.

Yours sincerely

Bill McLean
President

The Hospitality Association was formed in 1902 as the United Licensed Victuallers Association. In 1958 it became renamed as the Hotel Association of New Zealand and in 1995 it became the Hospitality Association of New Zealand. The Association has a long heritage of advocacy and service to the hospitality industry.

Branches

The Hospitality Association is organised into 20 branches reflecting historical boundaries. Each Branch has an elected President and Executive to run the affairs within the branch boundaries. The Branch President and Executive are elected at a Branch Annual General Meeting, normally held during June and July. Elections are held on a 1 member 1 vote by those present at the meeting.
