Manawatū Defence Hub

Since 1997 the Defence Hub has acted as a one-stop centre for expertise in supply and procurement for Defence Services in New Zealand. The Manawatū Defence Hub affiliated as a Special Interest Group (SIG) with the Manawatū Business Chamber in 2018 to pave the way for future growth.


The Manawatū Defence Hub is a collective of like-minded businesses experienced in the supply of products and services to Defence and other security, public service and civilian agencies, including NZ Police, NZ Fire Service, Dept of Corrections and Civil Defence.


The Defence Hub is for local businesses capable of professional, proactive supply and for the wider procurement community seeking innovative and reliable sources for goods and services.


Affiliation with the Hub provides a focus for action, advice and information, and identifies supply and business development opportunities for Defence Hub Members.


For the wider Defence community, allied and associated organisations, the Manawatū Defence Hub is experienced in meeting your needs, creating a centre of excellence for business relationships.
