Ravensdown is committed to creating thriving rural communities.
What we support
We are proud to support a range of events, programmes and community initiatives. As much as we’d like to, we are unable to support all sponsorship opportunities, so please carefully consider the following when approaching Ravensdown for support.
Can you say “Yes’ to one or more of these questions? Does the sponsorship opportunity;
- Connect rural communities to help them prosper?
- Support better environmental outcomes for farmers?
- Promote a sustainable farming business for future generations?
- Promote innovation within the farming community?
Some other things to consider;
- We will only look at opportunities based in New Zealand.
- Our co-operative provides whole farm solutions that support sustainable productivity predominantly for dairy, sheep and beef, and arable farming systems. Please see our website for a comprehensive view of our products, services and innovative technologies and consider what we do when approaching us with a proposal.
What we look for
When looking at sponsorship opportunities, we consider the following;
- Whether or not the opportunity complements our current sponsorship portfolio.
- What the direct benefits are for Ravensdown shareholders.
- What unique promotional opportunities exist.
- Where the creative opportunities are for us to add value to your event, activity or programme.
- The ability to consider regular support and the long-term impact of the opportunity.
How to apply
Please send details of your sponsorship opportunity to the events and sponsorship manager for consideration. Your request may also be sent to one of our regional managers if specific to a regional community.
When sending us a proposal please supply;
- How your opportunity aligns with the questions asked above.
- Clear details on the event or opportunity including investment.
- Information regarding any other sponsors.
Applications take up to four weeks for consideration and possibly longer if the opportunity is larger in scale. All sponsorship opportunities will receive a written response whether accepted or declined.
