The opportunity exists for wholesale investors to express interest in Hunting HQ.

Hunting HQ is a unique SAAS marketplace that connects landowners with hunters in order to solve a variety of pain points for landowners, hunters, and other recreational users.

The Farmer

Rural property owners are constantly faced with the destruction of valuable land from unwanted wildlife, and limited time and resources with which to eradicate these pests. Farmers are reluctant to invite strangers to hunt on their properties due to increasing Health and Safety requirements and insurance concerns; growing evidence that some in society lack the care or personal responsibility required to look after their property or stock; and safety concerns with variable hunter skills levels and attitudes. In addition, landowners have to deal with hunters constantly approaching them for access, hunter management has become an issue.

Supporting key indicators can be found via;

• The continued growth of properties since the launch in 2021, with interest from large land management groups.
• Ongoing conversation and feedback from farmers through both digital and in-person channels such as the agricultural show day events throughout the year.

The Hunter

In New Zealand, we have over 160,000+ hunters who are looking for properties to hunt. Currently, hunters can access public land but cannot be assured of who else is hunting at that time or how often the area has been hunted. Hunters are looking for the opportunity to introduce their families and friends to the outdoor experience but want reassurance that will be safe for all involved.

Supporting key indicators can be found via;

• Pre-launch hunter interest form launched Jan 2020, with over 2,500 submissions.
• Ongoing conversation and feedback from hunters through both digital and in-person channels such as the agricultural show day events throughout the year.
• The continued growth of digital marketing reach, including an average of 30+ new interested contacts recorded in our database per day, captured via multiple channels.
• The continued growth of paying hunters since the launch in 2021, breaking 500 members in November 2021. A positive result, even with Covid restrictions.
• The continued growth of new hunters through referrals, which currently sits at 34%.

The Solution

How does HuntingHQ benefit these two key groups?

With the needs of both Farmers and Hunters in mind, we created a unique online marketing platform, where Farmers can list their properties while maintaining complete control of their listing, and the hunters who request access. Hunters can view these properties, register, be fully vetted, and book any listing throughout New Zealand.
