In a world of corporations and conglomerates, being a family-owned small business is more than just a label; it's a testament to resilience, dedication, and the enduring spirit of entrepreneurship. A family-owned business is a labor of love, a collective dream nurtured through generations, where each member contributes not just their skills but a piece of their heart.At its core, being a family-owned small business means weaving the fabric of your identity into the very essence of your enterprise. It's about more than profit margins and market shares; it's a commitment to shared values, a handshake sealed with trust, and a legacy crafted with sweat, tears, and the shared triumphs that echo through time.In a family-owned small business, every success is a collective victory, and every challenge is a shared burden. It's about late nights and early mornings, wearing multiple hats, and understanding that the success of the business is intimately tied to the well-being of the family. It's the embodiment of the adage that when you support a small, family-owned business, you're not helping a CEO buy a third vacation home; you're helping a little girl get dance lessons or a young boy get his first bike.Being a family-owned small business means forging connections that go beyond transactions. It's about knowing your customers by name, understanding their needs, and becoming an integral part of the community. In a family-owned business, the customer isn't just a number; they are an extension of the family, and their satisfaction is a personal triumph.Moreover, it means navigating the delicate balance between tradition and innovation. It's about honoring the wisdom of the past while embracing the possibilities of the future. A family-owned small business is a dynamic entity, shaped by the ever-evolving tapestry of family values, industry trends, and the unique personality each generation brings to the table.In essence, being a family-owned small business is a celebration of authenticity. It's about staying true to your roots, fostering a sense of belonging, and creating a haven where both family and business thrive. It's a courageous journey that echoes with the laughter of shared victories and the quiet strength found in the face of challenges.So, the next time you step into a family-owned small business, remember that you're not just entering a shop; you're stepping into a living story, a testament to the enduring power of family, and a beacon of hope for dreams that persist against all odds. At The Pizza Farm we are forged on each of these principles and thankful for all who supports us. Community members such as Mrs. Miller doing these small business highlights are so meaningful and impactful.

It's Fieldays week!If you can squeeze in the time, then I encourage you all to visit. I have a deep connection (past Board member, Innovations judge - and more...). But regardless of the past, I get such a kick out visiting each year.First, seeing this years' innovations - the gift that keeps growing (puns always intended). Clever people and technology adding value to NZInc. As a patent attorney it is particularly gratifying to see the commercial version of what you first came across as a raw concept, and as an IP strategist, it is such a pleasure to see how inventors and companies position themselves.Next, I am reminded how we are all interconnected in the Agritech space and how it underpins NZ's economic fabric. We all depend upon and support each other.Last - mussel fritters! Need I say more...See you there.
