Morrinsville-based family-owned company Power Farming is this year’s winner of the 2017 Fieldays Supreme site award.
The awards recognise the months of planning and weeks of hard work that go towards creating an innovative site at the National Agricultural Fieldays.
Judges evaluate criteria such as site design, customer engagement, and entertainment. They also take into consideration the degree of agriculture present, such as appropriate signage and topical farming themes.
The Supreme Award recognises exceptional customer service and creation of a thriving agricultural environment
According to the judging panel, the Power Farming site was well laid out with an appealing display of products, designed to draw visitors further into the site.
The judges say that efficient landscaping, fencing and spotless ag vehicles created a clean overall appearance, and there was consideration taken to provide an area for staff to engage with customers.
” A key element was the engaging, friendly staff who created a positive visitor atmosphere, clear signage and branding, and the site was well organised, fully compliant and safe,” says the judging panel.
Power Farming marketing director Brett Maber says it was a real team effort.
“All the staff have been working hard, from moving bark to handing out brochures and it’s just good to see the hard work gets noticed,” says Maber.
