HELLERS NZS BUTCHER

+64 800 803 909 privacy@hellers.co.nz
The Heller family tradition of butcheries began when Gorg Heller emigrated from Germany to New Zealand during the gold rush of the 1880’s and started supplying the gold miners with smallgoods from a small shop in Arrowtown. Todd Heller continued the long line of butchers by opening his first butchery in New Brighton, Christchurch, in 1985. Todd began offering greater variety and new flavours – very little of which were available at the time. His customers responded well. Todd Heller Meats started supplying supermarkets and moved to a new plant at Kaiapoi and began supplying throughout the South Island. The company continued to flourish and after merging with Tasty Bacon became Heller Tasty Limited. The purchase of Vienna Sensational Foods gave the company national distribution and in 2002, Heller’s Sensational London Pride sausage was judged New Zealand’s best. In 2008, Hellers won the Supreme Sausage award with Hellers Cheese Kransky and the 100% NZ Bacon of the year award with Hel…

Factors Contributing to Growth and Success
Government Initiatives
The New Zealand government has been instrumental in promoting the growth and success of the FMCG industry in the country. One key initiative is the government's commitment to promoting free trade and reducing trade barriers, which has helped the industry to expand its export markets. Additionally, the government has implemented policies that promote the growth of the agriculture sector, which is closely linked to the FMCG industry.
Industry Growth and Comparison to Previous Years
The FMCG industry in New Zealand has been experiencing steady growth in recent years. In 2022, the industry's revenue reached NZD 35.2 billion, representing a 3.8% increase compared to the previous year. This growth can be attributed to several factors, including an increase in demand for high-quality, locally produced food and beverage products, as well as the industry's adoption of new technologies and marketing strategies.
Compared to previous years, the FMCG industry in New Zealand has experienced moderate growth. In 2019, the industry's revenue was NZD 32.3 billion, and in 2020 it was NZD 33.9 billion. This represents a growth rate of 9.3% over two years, demonstrating the industry's continued growth and potential.
Key Trends
Technological Disruptions
Technological disruptions are a key trend in the FMCG industry in New Zealand. The rise of e-commerce and digital technologies has enabled companies to improve their operational efficiency, offer a more personalized experience to customers, and expand their reach into new markets. For example, online grocery shopping has become increasingly popular in New Zealand, with companies like Countdown and New World offering customers the option to shop online and have their groceries delivered to their door.
Sustainability
Sustainability is another key trend in the FMCG industry in New Zealand. With concerns about climate change increasing, consumers are looking for products that are environmentally friendly and socially responsible. This has led to the development of new products and packaging materials that are more sustainable, as well as the adoption of sustainable practices throughout the industry's supply chain.
Challenges
Despite the growth and success of the FMCG industry in New Zealand, there are several challenges that the industry faces. One of the biggest challenges is the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. The pandemic has disrupted the global economy and led to changes in consumer behavior, which has affected the industry's sales and revenue. Additionally, the pandemic has created operational challenges, such as supply chain disruptions, which have added to the industry's costs.
Another challenge is the need to remain competitive in an increasingly crowded market. The FMCG industry is highly competitive, with many companies vying for a share of the market. To remain successful, companies must constantly innovate and differentiate themselves from their competitors, which can be a difficult and costly process.
Future Outlook
The future outlook for the FMCG industry in New Zealand is positive, with continued growth expected in the coming years. The government's commitment to promoting free trade and reducing trade barriers, combined with favorable market conditions, is likely to fuel this growth. Additionally, technological disruptions and sustainability are expected to continue to be key trends in the industry.
To maintain growth and success in the future, the FMCG industry in New Zealand must remain focused on addressing the challenges it faces while also adapting to changing trends and preferences. One key area of focus is sustainability. As concerns about climate change increase, the industry must continue to invest in new sustainable practices and products to reduce its environmental impact and meet consumers' changing preferences.
Another area of focus is innovation. The FMCG industry is constantly evolving, with new technologies and trends emerging all the time. Companies must be agile and adaptable to seize opportunities and stay ahead of the competition. For example, the rise of e-commerce and the shift towards a more digitally focused world could create new opportunities for companies to offer innovative services and products to customers.
Furthermore, there is a need for greater collaboration within the industry. The FMCG industry is complex, with multiple stakeholders involved, including manufacturers, retailers, and consumers. To address the challenges and opportunities presented by the industry, these stakeholders must work together to find solutions and drive progress.
Conclusion
In conclusion, the FMCG industry in New Zealand has played a vital role in the country's economy, contributing to its GDP and providing employment opportunities for thousands of people. While the industry faces challenges such as the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the need to remain competitive in an increasingly crowded market, it also presents significant opportunities for growth and innovation. By remaining focused on government initiatives, industry growth, and technological advancements, the industry can continue to thrive and contribute to the country's economic success.
