McDonalds
New Zealand’s first McDonald’s restaurant opened in Porirua in 1976. Today there are 150 McDonald’s restaurants across New Zealand, 80 per cent of which are franchised and run by local business men and women. The organisation employs more than 9000 people in restaurants nationwide. In 2009, McDonald’s spent $145 million with New Zealand suppliers, buying produce and products for its restaurants.
Nestlé New Zealand
Nestlé has been part of New Zealand society for over 120 years and today employs over 600 staff. Nestlé has grown into the world's leading food and beverage producer with such favourite brands as MAGGI, NESCAFÉ, MILO, UNCLE TOBYS and KIT KAT.

New Zealand Pork
New Zealand Pork is responsible for the promotion of 100% New Zealand pork, ham and bacon. These products are an increasingly important part of the New Zealand diet and kiwis are now eating over 20kg of pork per person per year. Funded by producer levies, New Zealand Pork works hard to deliver products which will result in superior eating experiences.

New Zealand Sugar
Back before New Zealand had the All Blacks, kiwifruit, Buzzy Bees or bungee, we had Chelsea Sugar. Nestled amongst bush on the edge of Auckland’s North Shore, NZ Sugar’s refinery has been supplying top quality products to kiwi homes and businesses since 1884. They also supply New Zealand’s food service industry and export to all over Asia Pacific. The 250 staff work across two sites – our blending plant in Glenfield, North Shore and in their famous pink refinery on the banks of the Waitemata Harbour.
