    INBOUND E-DIRECTORY 2016 What is the Tourism Export Council of New Zealand? The Tourism Export Council of New Zealand is a trade association that has represented the interests of inbound tourism since 1971. Their inbound members package holidays for international visitors whether they be part of a group tour, independent traveller, conference/incentives, education or cruise visitors. What do we do & who do we represent? The Tourism Export Council’s focus is to build long term business relationships with distribution networks in New Zealand and offshore. The relationship with product suppliers in New Zealand and offshore wholesalers is integral to the country’s continued growth as a visitor destination. Member categories include: . Inbound member - inbound tour operators (ITO’s) . Allied member - attraction, activity, accommodation, transport and tourism service suppliers Examples of the allied membership include: . Attraction – Milford Sound, SkyTower, Te Papa Museum . Activities – Jetboating, Whalewatch, Maori Culture show . Accommodation – hotels, luxury lodges, backpackers . Transport – airlines, bus & coaches, sea transport, shuttles . Tourism services – Regional Tourism Organisations (RTO’s) digital & marketing companies, education & tourism agencies eg. DOC, Service IQ, Qualmark, AA Tourism, BTM Marketing, ReserveGroup Why is tourism considered an export industry? Tourism, like agriculture is one of New Zealand’s biggest income earners. Both are export industries because they bring in foreign dollars to New Zealand. With agriculture, you grow an apple, send it offshore and a foreigner eats it. A clear pathway of a New Zealand product consumed or purchased by someone overseas. Tourism works slightly differently: The product is still developed in NZ (just like the apple) It is sold offshore (like the apple) It is purchased by a foreigner (again like the apple) BUT it is experienced in NZ and therein lies the difference.

In a case of caveat emptor, My Food Bag debuted on the market and promptly under-performed – in part, because the IPO price was set earlier in February before the market sold off. Bond rates have been rising in the US, with spill over effects to other bond markets, in part due to expectations of an economic bounce following the early success so far of the Covid vaccines. In March, this was exacerbated by the US fiscal stimulus measures – a US$1.9 trillion pandemic relief plan followed by a US$2.4 trillion infrastructure proposal.

  • For Personal Use Only
    5 May 2017 NZ Bus consolidates its Wellington bus operations NZ Bus confirms it has not been selected as a preferred tenderer for the three units of the Wellington city contracts it participated in for bus services in Wellington. There were nine units in total that were tendered by Greater Wellington Regional Council (GWRC) under the Public Transport Operating Model (PTOM). The result of the Wellington tender process is consistent with Infratil’s recent market messaging on the expected future scale of the NZ Bus business and earnings guidance. The preferred tenderers were Tranzit (NZ) who won eight of the nine units tendered and UZABUS who won one unit. GWRC has confirmed the four Directly Appointed Units (DAUs) in Wellington city that NZ Bus retains as incumbent operator, which enables NZ Bus to focus on its Go Wellington services. These units are subject to price negotiation. Under PTOM, a proportion of contracts are openly tendered while others are renewed with incumbent bus operators following direct negotiation. NZ Bus did not tender for the Hutt Valley contracts, and undertook consultation with staff before it made this decision. Zane Fulljames, CEO of NZ Bus, said the company had to make strategic decisions about which PTOM tenders to bid for, on top of the DAUs, in the context of GWRC’s PTOM guideline that specified that no one bus operator is permitted to hold more than 60% of all services in the region. “Given that NZ Bus currently holds contracts for over 80% of all bus services in the region, it was inevitable that we would hold fewer contracts at the conclusion of the PTOM tender process.
