"We access the benefits of n3 via NZ Sport to help with reducing business costs and enhancing purchasing performance. We don’t need to waste time worrying if we are getting the best discounts as the negotiating has already been done for us by n3. Our staff really enjoy the Trade Card App as it saves the hassle of remembering to have the card on you. "
"Being part of the Civil Contractors NZ Association, we appreciate having a supportive network that includes access to n3. n3 is a great group to be with, it doesn’t matter where you are in the country, you still get the best pricing."
"As President of FICA, we brought on n3 to complement our association services around 3 - 4 years ago. Our smaller logging contractors have the buying power to get better deals through n3 suppliers, normally only available to bigger companies. "
"We love having suppliers available within the n3 network that have already had due diligence undertaken by n3, and they have negotiated the best price for us. We can access a range of suppliers and discounts without having to spend hours completing full procurement exercises."
"Our managers get good use from the Trade Cards from various retailers we only use occasionally and don’t have accounts with."
"We've been a member of n3 since 2012, through SportNZ. By negotiating pricing, n3 helps us save on costs. They also regularly update their offer and bring on new suppliers."
"n3 does a lot of the work for us in negotiating deals; we just have to monitor new suppliers that have come on board and see which are appropriate to us."
"Because n3 has already done the negotiations, we know we're getting the best possible pricing when purchasing products from n3 suppliers. The savings we make through n3 we pass on to our clients, meaning we can offer more cost-effective solutions than our competitors. "
"Our business is kept busy looking after our customers. I don’t have time to run around negotiating prices and service agreements with every supplier we may need. I’m happy n3 does this for me, and the proof is in the savings we’ve been making every year. "
"The things I like about n3 are the great specials and bargains we get, along with everyday competitive pricing; as well as the n3 Trade Card."
"n3 is so easy to use. Many of our staff work regionally, the n3 Trade Card enables them to pick up supplies easily and quickly when travelling between training courses, events, consultations and audits. "
"We’ve been with n3 via the Registered Master Builders Association for around a year now. For us, the n3 offer has enhanced our purchasing power."
"Using n3 is a simple way for us to save money on materials we need for our landscape construction projects. One the best things we find is all the work and negotiating with suppliers is done for us - saving us time and money."
"We’ve been a long term n3 member through the Climate Control Companies Association. The n3 Buying Group is great – having a big pool of companies in the Group means we all get access to better savings. "
"Being part of Apparelmaster Australasia gives us the ability to tap into n3 through our Group membership. The preferential pricing we get for fuel, in particular, is the best in the industry."
"As a business owner, you’re constantly analysing your costs and looking for the best deals available. I've found n3 is a simple way of reducing business costs and once we had our suppliers set up with n3, it was painless to operate and no effort to manage. Saving us time and money"
"n3 gives us access to quality products, from leading suppliers at better pricing. It means we can focus more time on managing supplier relationships and less time negotiating, because n3 has done that for us. "
"We receive better purchase pricing with n3 than we can get independently and it saves us time not having to do this ourselves."
"We have been with n3 for over 10 years now, and the savings we’ve made have helped us invest in our people, our centre, and disadvantaged children in Bagdogra, India"
"n3 has enabled us to get really good rates within a very competitive market. We've had a longstanding history of 20 years with n3 - right back to the days of the Government Stores Board."
