Selwyn Awards 2025 Sponsors

Carter Group is a New Zealand property development company focused on creating industrial, retail, commercial, and residential developments that support the growth and prosperity of local communities.

Our key projects, including IPort Rolleston – a master-planned inland port and freight precinct – and Earlsbrook, a residential development in Selwyn, reflect our commitment to providing the infrastructure and spaces that help businesses grow and communities thrive.

At Carter Group, we’re dedicated to shaping the future of Selwyn by delivering innovative developments that create opportunities and foster long-term success.

Presenting Partner

IPort’s location just 28 kilometres from Christchurch’s CBD is a major asset for exporters and importers.

It is strategically positioned at the intersection of the South Island’s major freight arteries – the South Island Main Trunk Railway Line, the Midland Railway Line, State Highway 1, and Christchurch’s new Southern Motorway which opened in 2020. These arteries provide easy access to Lyttelton Port and Christchurch Airport – the major freight links into and out of the region.

At Property Brokers, we are passionate about the community and believe in the power of engaging with local residents.  We thrive on supporting events that bring people together and celebrate the spirit of Selwyn.  With offices in Darfield, Rolleston, Leeston, and Lincoln, we see our partnership with the Selwyn Awards as a perfect fit for our values of putting the community first.

Our team understands the unique experiences of living in Selwyn, and we are excited to see the growth and vibrancy of our region.  Together, let's make this year’s Selwyn Awards a memorable celebration for our community!

CORDE is a trusted infrastructure partner delivering civil construction, water, and maintenance services across the South Island. We're proud to support the Selwyn Awards, celebrating the people, businesses, and organisations that help Selwyn thrive. Our work is about building more than infrastructure – it’s about supporting the communities who call this region home.

WM New Zealand’s relationship with Selwyn District Council goes back to the 1980s - that's decades of working together to make a difference. We deliver kerbside collections throughout the district and support many local businesses with their waste and recovery needs. By sponsoring the Environmental Action Award, we're recognising those who protect and restore our local environment, promote biodiversity, and implement sustainable practices that benefit both present and future generations. Every day, our team lives by our promise of "Let's take care of it" as we work alongside the community to keep Selwyn clean and sustainable - it's what we do and what matters to us.

Nestled in the southside of Lincoln, with views to the Port Hills and the Southern Alps, Earlsbrook offers the perfect balance of rural living with convenient access to urban amenities.

Earlsbrook residents enjoy the best of both worlds  – quick access to all the cultural, dining and retail experiences available in the city, and the relaxed ambiance of Lincoln’s semi-rural, community-focused township.

TranzAlpine Organics, a family-run beekeeping business based in Rolleston, is excited to partner with the Selwyn District Council for the highly anticipated Selwyn Awards 2025. This year, they are honoured to sponsor the Community Volunteer Award, which celebrates those who selflessly dedicate their time and effort to helping others. The Selwyn Awards 2025 promise to be a memorable event, recognizing the diverse achievements that make Selwyn a great place to live and work. TranzAlpine Organics is proud to support and be part of this important celebration.

At HEB Construction, we're proud to sponsor the Destination Award and support the Selwyn Awards. For 15 years, we've worked alongside SDC - delivering with care, building better together. Our Selwyn whānau is made up almost entirely of local staff - working for and alongside our neighbours, friends, and whānau, with genuine pride in the place we call home.

Orion is proud to sponsor the Diversity & Inclusion Award at the 2025 Selwyn Business Awards.

As the electricity distributor for central Waitaha Canterbury, our purpose is to power a cleaner and brighter future with our community. We embrace the diversity in our community and look forward to a future built on inclusion, where diverse perspectives, backgrounds, and experiences are valued.

In an increasingly complex world, a diverse and inclusive team is vital to helping the Orion waka navigate the future with confidence. Our people are our greatest strength, and unlocking the full potential of a truly inclusive workplace is key to building a better tomorrow, for our people, our customers, and our communities.

Diversity and inclusion aren’t just ideals, they’re essential for driving innovation, building resilience, and strengthening communities. That’s why we’re honoured to recognise and celebrate the Selwyn businesses and leaders who are championing these values and creating environments where everyone can thrive.
