Consumer NZ is an independent, non-profit organisation established in 1959 with the sole aim of getting New Zealand consumers a fairer deal.
Our work covers a wide range of activities relating to consumer protection and information.
They include: comparative tests and surveys of consumer goods and services, research into and advice on financial, food, health, safety, welfare and environmental matters, representation at parliamentary committees and public enquiries and an interest in consumer education and complaints advisory work.
We commission independent laboratories to carry out our product tests. Our membership of Consumers International means we benefit from an exchange of information with consumer organisations around the world.
When we say "independent" we mean it
We never accept free goods for testing, nor do we accept donations or sponsorship. Our magazines are completely independent and have no ties with any commercial firm or organisation.
