Change of President at NZFGA

The New Zealand Flower Growers Association in August addressed some key issues to set a course for the NZFGA going in to the future.

As with many industries the workload and challenges continue to become more and increasingly complex. Daniel has stepped up in a leadership role to assist the Association to meet the challenges and develop operationally to be able to administer it's existing functions efficiently. At the AGM the point was made that David and the outgoing committee members have put in a lot of hours of unpaid work over the years to further the best interests of the association and the industry at large. The contribution and commitment of this team have been enduring and the attendees expressed their appreciation of these monumental contributions.

David will remain involved on a defined project basis and the Association remains with it's secretarial and additional support of member benefits through a service provider company to ensure the continuation and development of increased member benefits.
