Westpac supports successful Northland businesses.  Westpac's General Manager of Business Banking, Ian Blair, says it's encouraging to see the Northland business success stories as the entrants line up for the Business Excellence Awards in October.
  
As main sponsor of the awards, Westpac is extremely proud to be involved - working with businesses and helping them share their knowledge and good practice will ensure a sustainable and growing business sector in Northland.
  
The Westpac Business Banking team is focused on helping thousands of companies and businesses thrive throughout New Zealand, and Mr Blair says regional growth is the lifeblood of economic success.  
We are actively working with Northland to encourage business growth.  The Bank is keen to invest in local businesses and people, and is striving to grow and acquire new customers.  
Westpac has specialist industry teams in manufacturing, construction and health - who have worked in those sectors and who have the banking expertise to help small, medium and large businesses, says Mr Blair. "We also have professional specialists, franchise specialists and a dedicated team for Equipment Finance."
