Board

Welcome to the TomatoesNZ Board and Management

Governance of TomatoesNZ is carried out by a board of six elected members (commercial tomato growers), three co-opted members, an independent chairman, and up to two observers.  In around May each year and prior to the Annual General Meeting, TomatoesNZ members have an opportunity to nominate grower representatives to fill the "elected member" board positions.
