SIMON AND CARRIE CLARKE

Dairy Farmers, Tirau, North Island, NZ

This year National Bank New Zealand (NBNZ) worked closely with Simon and Carrie Clarke to help them realise a life-long dream to own their own farm.

Simon and Carrie originally approached NBNZ to discuss growing their sharemilking business, thinking that outright farm ownership was a far-off goal.

NBNZ Rural Manager, Jeff de Malmanche, took the opportunity to look at wider financing options for them and after visiting a number of properties, helped them finance the purchase of their first dairy farm.
