Already into 2012, this E-Line issue has plenty of good news and industry information to offer.

Trading conditions continue to be challenging with little sign of consumers being prepared to go out more and increase their discretionary spend. With cost continuing to rise it has never been more important to optimise the use of the Association's buying benefits.

These are constantly being reviewed with new member benefits added so please take the time to make sure you are not spending any more than you need to.

Our two new partners, Qjumpers and Sleepyhead Commercial are good examples. You can click here to find details of all partnerships on our website.

We also want to make sure that all members are aware of the date change for this year's Hospitality Showcase. Our annual conference will be held in Wellington and the correct dates to put in your calendar is Tuesday 25 and Wednesday 26 September.
