Hawke’s Bay local Jantha Gooding has been named as Fastway Couriers’ New Zealand Marketing Manager.
The announcement follows Austin Mortimer’s promotion to New Zealand General Manager earlier in the month, and will see Gooding work alongside Mortimer at Fastway Courier’s Franchise Support Office in Hawke’s Bay.
Austin Mortimer, New Zealand General Manager at Fastway Couriers, says Jantha’s appointment has taken place to embrace continued growth opportunities in New Zealand.
“Jantha brings with her a wealth of experience working with some of Hawke’s Bay’s leading brands, including the Hawke’s Bay Opera House. As a superb marketer with a strong community focus, Jantha’s expertise will help us further build Fastway’s profile in New Zealand,” says Mortimer.
Gooding says her role will include supporting the rest of the Fastway team, creating new partnerships and developing the franchise’s business across New Zealand.
“Fastway Couriers is currently celebrating 30 years since the business was founded right here in Hawke’s Bay. This demonstrates the strength of Fastway’s business model and its reputation across New Zealand,” says Gooding.
“Today, Fastway Couriers is well situated to make the most of the growth potential resulting from the increased popularity of online retailing. I look forward to embracing the many new opportunities currently in the marketplace for the benefit of each of our clients and franchisees.”
