New Zealand’s national parks are cherished by travellers from across the globe. To capture the spirit of these legendary places, an enchanting new product range has thoughtfully developed through strategy led by FRG’s tourism specialists.
When Masterton District Council, the Masterton Alliance and Tupu Ana – Masterton Chamber of Commerce needed to inject new life into their central business district, they turned to First Retail Group.
We delivered a high-impact town centre summit that united business and community leaders focused on the success of their CBD. By facilitating complex discussions around social resilience and economic development, we helped bring diverse community feedback into a unified, actionable strategy that is being rapidly enabled.
The result? A stronger, more vibrant centre that's perfectly aligned with Masterton’s 2050 "Our Future Our Story" vision for long-term growth and prosperity.
