President’s Message NZChefs is the “National Association” representing professional chefs, cooks and trainees, patissiers and confectioners from school age to mature practitioners in New Zealand’s most vibrant and demanding industry. Through continued education including Judges qualifications along with involvement of culinary competitions and trade events at local, national and international level we provide opportunities for many of our members to showcase their creativity and skills in the public arena. We have eight regional branches around New Zealand. These branches allow chefs to help fellow chefs both nationally and internationally. The branches hold regular meetings and are active within their regions and at a national level. Members consist of people with a passion for food and represent a wide range of professions associated with the industry. NZChefs has a Charitable Trust which has been established in New Zealand to represent the “Humanitarian Focus” of the WorldChefs. The WorldChefs mission states “Everyone on the planet should have access to food and water that is healthy, safe and sufficient. This can only happen if the earth is healthy first.” In New Zealand we will focus on Poverty, Health and Education to support the WorldChefs without Borders mission. If you can help us, we can help others in New Zealand. WorldChefs is a global network of chefs associations founded in 1928 at Sorbonne in Paris. Today, this global body has 100 official chefs associations as members that represent over 10 million professional chefs worldwide. WorldChefs is dedicated to maintaining and improving the culinary standards of global cuisines. It accomplishes these goals through education, training and professional development of its international membership. As an Association of Professionals we welcome any contact that could assist the advancement of the culinary Arts in New Zealand.
Yours in culinary friendship
