WANT TO HELP LOCAL HOSPITALITY BUSINESSES BUT DON’T KNOW HOW?

When Adrian Dixon, Country Manager at Stoddart NZ and Stoddart’s chef Adam were discussing the impacts of lockdown on restaurants and cafes, they wanted to come up with a way Stoddart NZ could help.

“W e were aware that the wage subsidy went directly to employees and the Government’s resurgence payment was not anywhere close to meeting overhead costs,” said Dixon. The Kiwi hospitality sector is not just made up of those in customer-facing roles with restaurants and cafés, there are also all the people and businesses connected to the foodservice industry, and the restrictions placed on establishments has had a ripple affect throughout the wider industry. Realising that the Government were still not meeting the cries from the sector for targeted relief, Stoddart NZ stepped up, and many Kiwi businesses and brands have followed suit, donating everything from vouchers and hampers, to experiences and equipment.

It is incredibly easy to donate an item to the Hands Up 4 Hospo auction, simply fill out the online form and you can do your part in helping Kiwi Hospitality keep the lights on.

“Our close association and relationship with the hospitality sector made it natural for us to try and assist,” noted Dixon.

You can also help by sharing the auction with friends and family, there are some amazing items up for grabs, perfect for the lead up to the gift giving season! You can check out the latest auctions right here: www.trademe.co.nz/a/search?member_ listing=8028627&bof=xfNO6liR
