NZ Nursery Register 2011/12

The 2011/12 edition of the NZ Register is available. At just under 300 pages, it carries a mass of detailed information about companies and people in or associated with the garden industry in NZ. The data has been totally updated since the previous edition. Price is $75.90 incl GST and delivery within NZ.

You can order the NZ Register on this site (click here for options) or please phone 09 358 2749.

The Register is a fantastic place to advertise to reach the NZ garden industry. Many buyers make their copies last two or more years and the Register’s penetration is as high as 86% into some sectors. We’ll be updating listings and booking ads for this year’s edition in June.

Australian Nursery Registers


Four regional Nursery Registers are available for Australia. Latest editions are:

   NSW/ACT, June 2010, 170 pages, 4000+ companies
   VIC/TAS/SA, September 2010, 180 pages, 4500+ companies
   QLD, November 2011, 102 pages, 2500 companies.
   WA, December 2009, 62 pages, 1500 companies.

These Registers carry extensive detail about nurseries (what they grow, grades etc), garden retailers, supply and service companies. There are phones, faxes, emails and contact names – a great resource if you’re dealing in any way with the garden trade in Australia. 

 You can order the Australian Registers on this site or please phone (09) 358-2749.

New editions of all Registers will be published during 2012
Advertising space is available – so if you’re targeting the trade in Australia the Registers are a great place to advertise because your message reaches people at the very moment they’re making a purchasing decision, or constantly as they fan through the book looking for a contact name or phone numbers.

We’re currently updating the WA and NSW/ACT editions. The others will be updated later in the year. Phone us at (09) 358-2749 for more details.

Christchurch Autumn Nursery Trade Day
2012

Christchurch Trade Day was held over two part days in March, coinciding with the first two days of the Ellerslie Flower Show.

Trade Day opened from 5pm to 7.30pm on Wednesday 7th and again the next day from 9am until 2pm. This timetable worked a treat and made for a very relaxed and sociable event with plenty of opportunities for networking.

The venue itself – the Canterbury Horticultural Society’s Hall in Hagley Park -- is certainly proving its worth as a good one for such a show, its size and design providing an ambience and general buzz that is missing from many trade shows in bigger venues.

The timing also allowed for both visitors and exhibitors to take in Ellerslie and Trade Day in the same trip.

Numbers of both exhibitors and visitors were down this year but that was to be expected what with the economic downturn and the fact that Christchurch, having lost around half of its available accommodation from the earthquakes, had been fully booked out months before March.

However, the quality, both of what was on display and of the visitors coming through, was apparent and feedback in general was that people were happy with what they did and saw.
