Tourism Industry Monitor

Last updated: August 2010

The Tourism Industry Monitor (TIM) is an industry initiative led by the Tourism Strategy Group, the Tourism Industry Association, Tourism New Zealand and the New Zealand Hotel Council.  It is strongly supported by all of New Zealand’s major tourism organisations. 

 
The purpose of the TIM is to provide individual tourism businesses with regular, up-to-date information on the performance of the tourism sector, including the outlook for the next three months.  It will be topical and relevant to tourism businesses in a rapidly changing market.  The information is designed to help individual businesses understand the current tourism environment, benchmark their performance against the wider market, and plan for the future with greater confidence.

  • 32% of respondents expect demand to improve in the next 3 months relative to the same period last year, while 40% expect demand to fall.  
  • The demand outlook for most regions is neutral to slightly negative when compared with the same period last year.  Otago/Southland is the only exception, which has a slightly more optimistic outlook.
