Hikurangi Business Association

Backing Local Business. Building a Stronger Hikurangi.

The Hikurangi Business Association (HBA) was formed in 2009 by local business owners who wanted a stronger, more connected village economy. Today, the Association continues that mahi, supporting local projects, advocating for better infrastructure, and helping businesses thrive as the district grows and changes.

Who We Are
The HBA is an Incorporated Society with around 30 members and an Executive Committee that oversees governance and projects. We meet monthly on the second Wednesday, 7pm.

Our Focus
• A planned, resilient local economy
• Strong partnerships across the community
• Infrastructure that supports business, recreation and tourism
