Membership & Costs

We provide a number of options for those considering joining the Association.  Whether you are a qualified one person craftsman, a small business owner with just a few employees or a large business covering all aspects of services and products available within our industry we can ensure that your business is accommodated no matter the size.  All can benefit from the range of memberships that the NZSDA can provide.

We also see the value and importance in recognising outstanding service among our life time members who’ve come to the end of their careers within the industry and still wish to keep intouch.  By offering a Retired and Honorary Membership encourages our legends of craft to stay involved and enables them to pass on their envaluable knowledge to the younger generations.
