The Wiri Licensing Trust is a community-owned company, which is
governed by Trustees elected during the local body elections and
works within the Sale of Liquor Act 1989 legislation.
The Trustees represent the Ward of Manurewa as per the boundaries
of the ward as existed on the 28 April 2004. The objective of the
Trust is to conduct the sale and supply of liquor and any other
business that in the opinion of the Trust will benefit the community
it represents.
In 1973, the Wiri Licensing Trust purchased land on Ronwood Ave,
Manukau City. It has since built, developed and maintained buildings
on this site inclusive of BNZ, Wendys Restaurant, Mobil Oil,
Guada bar and the building which currently houses the Super Liquor
and JDs Bar businesses.
The profits from these tenancies are used to fund sponsorships
and grants which in turn fund community projects with in the Manurewa
ward and a percentage to Manukau City wide projects.
For the Trust to be a Licensing Trust it needs to hold
a liquor license. This is facilitated through the ownership of the
Tavern Our Local on Roscommon Rd, Wiri and the Central
Bar & Cafe in central Manurewa.
Within the bars the Trust operates, it also has gaming machines,
which are run by The Trusts Charitable Foundation (TTCF) and Nautilus
Foundation. The Trustees of each of the gaming foundations make
the final decision of the allocation of grants from the profits
of gaming machines at Our Local and Central Bar & Cafe bars
under the requirements of the Gaming Act 2003. However TTCF and
Nautilus seek advice and a recommendation from the Wiri Licensing
Trust elected trustees to ensure our communities needs are
a priority.
The overall role of the Wiri Licensing Trust is for the Trustees
to maximise the return on all assets and profits that Wiri Licensing
Trust has ownership and governance over in improving community groups
and facilities for the well being of the whole of the Manurewa community.
