MEMBERSHIP AND CORPORATE MANAGER Nick Roney

Membership During these trying times it’s pleasing to see our membership has grown to over 550 venues. This has been directly attributed to the THA supporting the whole of industry not just members. We provided answers and clarifications regarding changing and new restrictions throughout the pandemic. Our GCE contractors have been doing a great job with dealing with industry compliance and discussions around current WorkSafe plans in venues and other training requirements that may be needed, which has also helped. Over this time, we have adjusted our communications to the four pillars of the THA. As you all are aware, we have the Pub, Tavern, Accommodation, Restaurants/Café/ Caterers (RCAT) and Clubs Tasmania, under the Tasmanian Hospitality Association banner. As I write this, I have just finished our first ever THA sector Zoom sessions for the Pub/Tavern, RCAT and Accommodation venues. The idea behind these is to inform all members of what we are working on at a government level, get an understanding of concerns or issues that you may be experiencing and then plan a way forward so we can tailor an outcome for those individual sectors of the THA membership base. The numbers in these meetings have been small at this stage, but I encourage everyone to respond to my calendar invites that I will send out again for the meetings in the coming months. We are currently still running our electricity tender through ENERGY ROI which there appears to be an average savings to members around 15%-20% (depending on annual usage and load profile). What we are still finding for those that participate in this offer, is that some people have benefited by being put on the wrong tariff and this has now been rectified and in some cases a back payment has been issued by the individual retailer. Please contact me if you are interested in this offer.

Corporate Our corporate partners have reached 61 and I encourage you to keep them top-of-mind when you need advice or are looking for a competitive quote for your business. We welcome The Card Network on-board, who have signed up as a Silver partner. They have two cards that will be sold in supermarkets — The Pub Card and Restaurant Card. During this time, we have created a corporate task force, which has been put together to see how our partners can come together for a common objective and that is to help the industry. We have met twice now and we look forward to working more closely with this group to help all members through these times. We are looking for offers to come from our trusted partners, not only to help with members business but to help our corporates grow their business as well. This is why we encourage you all to support those who are supporting us at the THA. Podcast We have commenced our podcast again (Hospitality in our Community), with a few changes in the format. Along with myself and Steve, we have recruited two hard-hitting industry experts in David Foster and David Noonan. In the series, there will be round table discussions on what we see in the industry and we unpack topics that “you” the venues have brought to our attention. This discussion can be comical at times, but it also gets down to the industry nitty-gritty. The more people that we get listening and sharing via all the social media platforms, the better. If you have any topics that you wish us to cover, please email me. Lastly, I just want to remind everyone the THA’s website the best resource for industry news and relevant up to date ER/ IR information. If you have misplaced your member login please call our office on 6220 7300. Please contact me directly if you need assistance in any way regarding your membership on 0439 119 343. Cheers, Nick
