You serve your patrons, we serve you

The hospitality industry is considered one of the world’s fastest growing, creating a new job every 2.5 seconds. The rate of this growth is approximately 23 times more than the global economy.

While increased travel demand and a healthy economy paint a rosy picture for the tourism and hospitality industries, it is vulnerable to threats from multiple fronts. Hospitality businesses are becoming more cost and profit conscious and guests are placing increased importance on price, quality, and the level of services they receive.

These unique challenges require the hospitality industry to be nimble, educated, and equipped with the latest technology to streamline processes and drive financial performance. Owners rely more and more on financial benchmarking data to ensure they are getting the most out of each asset and each management contract. The hospitality industry is turning to robust accounting tools and specialist accounting partners to balance these challenges. 

In the year ended 31 March 2017, tourism directly contributed $14.7 billion (or 5.9%) to the New Zealand total gross domestic product (GDP), with a further $11.3 billion (or 4.6%) indirectly contributed.  Tourism directly employed 230,793 people (8.4% of the total employment in New Zealand).  *
