Associations Forum delegates set to savour New Zealand wine

Delegates attending the Associations Forum National Conference (AFNC) next week will get a taste of New Zealand and a chance to take home a case of Cloudy Bay wine.

Conventions and Incentives New Zealand (CINZ) Australia Manager, Sharon Auld says New Zealand is renowned for its wine, and it is one of the many reasons Australians love to visit.

“Not only will we be offering our Australian guests a glass of wine on the stand, we will also have a wonderful prize draw. Delegates who come and talk to us about their conference will be in to win one of two cases of New Zealand’s exceptional Cloudy Bay wine.

New Zealand is leading its largest-ever team to the AFNC, with 14 exhibitors on the 100% Pure New Zealand stand at the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre on 4 and 5 July.

“We will be inviting delegates keen to experience our country for their conference to come and chat with us. We can provide plenty of support and advice on how New Zealand could work for their next event,” she says.

This is the sixth year for New Zealand at the AFNC, and the growing team represents an exciting range of venues and suppliers from the Bay of Islands in the north, to Dunedin in the south.

“This year we are delighted to have five new exhibitors from around New Zealand including Hamilton and Waikato, Nelson, Dunedin, Hobbiton™ Movie Set, and the New Zealand International Convention Centre (NZICC).

“Our 100% Pure New Zealand stand gives AFNC delegates a taste of what to expect when they come to New Zealand.

“Delegates will be able to find out how New Zealand can make their conference a success, while experiencing what we are so famous for, our special brand of Kiwi hospitality -Manaakitanga.”

Throughout the lunch and afternoon tea breaks on Tuesday 5 July, the New Zealand team will be serving premium New Zealand wine to guests visiting the stand.
