The finalists for the 2022 NZ Compare Awards have been announced today. The awards, which are supported by Movinghub, recognise excellence and achievement in New Zealand’s broadband, energy and mobile sectors. Celebrating the
outstanding service providers that deliver the very best products, value and services for Kiwis.
Gavin Male, Founder and CEO of NZ Compare says, "The pandemic changed the way we live and work as well as increasing our
reliance on utilities and connectivity. After an online celebration in 2021 we are ecstatic to be back, in person, for
the 2022 NZ Compare Awards, which will be the biggest and best event yet. The utilities sector as a whole continues to
work hard to keep Kiwis connected and charged during ever changing times and these companies continue to come up with
innovative solutions to put their customers first. We are delighted to see so many great companies put their hand up to
enter the NZ Compare Awards in 2022."
Male continues, "Once again, we have seen a record number of entries for this year’s awards, representing a wide range
of brands and companies. It is interesting to see the change in the make-up of the finalists with a number of relatively
new providers in broadband and mobile coming in with very strong entries. As always, the level of competition has been
intense. Our independent judging experts were blown away by the overall quality of entrants and selecting the winners
from these finalists will be a tough task!"
Entries to the awards came from a wide range of telecoms and energy providers - from large established players like
2Degrees, Vodafone and Contact through to specialist providers like Farmside, Woi, Wireless Nation and Network 4
Learning.
Winners of the NZ Compare Awards will be announced at a gala awards event, hosted by Mike McRoberts and taking place at
the Hunua Rooms in Auckland’s Aotea Centre on Thursday 1 st December. Tickets are selling fast and available to purchase
