German Know-How plus Kiwi Ingenuity
The German Pavilion returns to BuildNZ in 2025, bringing together German Know-How and Kiwi ingenuity. The pavilion will be prominently located in the centre of the arena, bridging the main boulevard. Here you will find the GNZCC hosting their exhibitors - showcasing their products from Germany, and services representing a wide technology range for the build and design industry.
When we asked our exhibiting companies what the label `Made in Germany´ means to them, their answers were quite unanimous: quality, precision and innovation followed by tested, proven and reliable. Those characteristics became a trademark for products made by German businesses and shape the opinions and expectations of their clients all around the world. We also asked the exhibitors which characteristics best describe the building and construction industry in New Zealand and got quite mixed views. On the one hand, the industry was called unorganised, slow, poorly regulated and underdeveloped. But in contrast to that it´s also been described as compliant, growing, changing and innovative.
New Zealand has the chance to collaborate with the best suppliers worldwide to get all building projects done well. Therefore, trade shows like BuildNZ act as a platform which brings industry professionals together and showcases the newest products in the market.
In hosting a German Pavilion, the objectives of the GNZCC are:
• Create an environment for German suppliers which is informative and conducive to doing business
• Create awareness of high-quality German product options amongst NZ business via direct contact
• Strengthen trade relations and access to market
This will be achieved through:
• Pre- and post-show marketing campaigns

• High visibility through “Made in Germany” branding
