New Focus Paihia Trustee – Roger Dold


Focus Paihia is delighted to announce the appointment of ROGER DOLD as the new BUSINESS REPRESENTATIVE on the FOCUS PAIHIA COMMUNITY CHARITABLE TRUST BOARD.

Although a familiar face at Focus Paihia working bees, many will know Roger from the days when he owned FULLERS, and/or as the father of four children, who all grew up in Paihia and went to Kerikeri High School. Significantly, together with Mike Simm and Chris Jacobs, in 1989 he bought Fullers out of receivership. Some 15 years later, after winning the Supreme Tourism Award for New Zealand in 2000, Roger sold Fullers in 2004.

Roger continues to have similar businesses in Fiji and Whitsundays which means he is regularly travelling. Roger is hoping to cut down on his travel and spend more time in Paihia and would love to put something back into the community that has given him and his family so much. After working behind the scenes on fundraising for the Mountain Bike Park over the past year, Roger is happy to offer his services to fill the position of  Business Representative on the Trust.
