Members Benefits Scheme

The recent survey of flower growers has shown that awareness of the benefits scheme is not as high as expected, and the Association is now working on improving that.

“According to the survey, not as many growers, including our own members, are as aware of the benefits scheme as we would like. This is now a priority for us,” says Association president Daniel Schuurman.

The Association is also working on adding new benefit partners to the scheme.

“The benefits scheme provides good value for association members. It gives discounts on all sorts of services and products that are useful to flower growers in New Zealand."

“This adds value to a grower’s membership of the Association. If you don’t join, you miss out on significant savings,” says Mr Schuurman.
