Connect with our audience of hospitality business leaders.

Want to get your brand in front of passionate, engaged hospitality business owners?

As the leading voice for restaurants, cafés and caterers nationwide, the Restaurant Association offers a unique way to reach the people shaping Aotearoa’s hospitality scene.

Whether you’re launching a new product, promoting a service, or looking to connect with a targeted hospitality audience, we can help you make it happen. Our advertising and partnership opportunities are designed to showcase your brand in the right place, to the right people, at the right time.

Explore the options below — and let’s talk about how we can work together to grow your reach and impact.

Email Marketing

Our weekly eNewsletter keeps Restaurant Association members and friends up to date with the latest industry news, trends, and events. It’s sent to our entire membership base plus key industry contacts — a total distribution of over 3,000. Once a month, we also send a special edition to our wider audience of around 5,000 additional hospitality contacts.

We offer two main advertising options, both designed to help your message stand out:

Web

Our online platforms — News & Views and Savour — are the go‑to hubs for hospitality news, insights and resources. Articles can reach upwards of 10,000 views per month and are shared across our online networks, giving your message exceptional visibility.

We offer a range of online advertising options to suit different campaign goals:

Social Media

Engage with our highly targeted hospitality audience on the platforms they use most — Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Twitter, or a combination. We offer limited weekly sponsored social posts to align with your campaign goals.

We also manage 13 regional hospitality job group boards, with a combined 80,000+ members, including business owners and industry job seekers. Opportunities include:

Podcast

Our Tales from the Pass podcast is a fresh way to connect with hospitality professionals — sharing industry stories, expert advice and inspiring interviews. It’s an authentic channel to align your brand with the voices shaping New Zealand’s hospitality scene.

Opportunities include co‑sponsorships, audio ad placements, guest interviews and more:

Sponsorship

From industry events to targeted special projects, our sponsorship opportunities put your brand right at the heart of New Zealand’s hospitality community. Sponsorship is a chance to connect meaningfully with hospitality professionals, business owners, and decision‑makers who value and support the brands that support them.

We’ll work closely with you to understand your objectives and tailor a sponsorship package that delivers maximum impact — whether that’s raising brand awareness, launching a new product, or deepening relationships within the industry.

Partnership

A partnership with the Restaurant Association is more than advertising — it’s a collaborative relationship with the trusted voice of the industry.
We work alongside our partners on strategic projects, campaigns and initiatives that deliver real value for both your brand and our members.

If you’re ready to make a meaningful, long‑term impact in hospitality, we’d love to talk.
