Welcome
Breathe! New Zealanders saw a lot more of their own country while the borders have been closed, and it turns out they like it. In our cover story, we look at how you can escape city life by buying a business in the regions, and why it can be surprisingly profitable – not to mention offering a better lifestyle.

There’s lots of helpful information on this website, too – from how to choose the right business to finding finance, and legal and accounting advice. There are also profiles of opportunities and a Directory of franchises for sale and advisors.
Despite Level 3 in Auckland, it’s business as usual here and we’re busy working (from home). Stay safe, follow the rules, be kind, and get vaccinated.
