About the Project

Savour is a quarterly trade magazine produced by the Restaurant Association of New Zealand exclusively for its nationwide membership base of owners and managers of restaurants, cafes, caterers, bars, takeaways and hotels. Each issue features different aspects of the hospitality industry, such as:

  • Food trends
  • Designing your restaurant culture
  • How to manage the Easter holidays
  • Tackling employee turnover 
  • Spotlights on Association members

I was tasked with the complete production of the magazine, including pulling together the magazine's key content featuring topical themes, coordinating with different contributors, maintaining sponsorship obligations, designing the overall magazine, and organising with printers for production. My responsibilities included art direction, content curation and writing, editorial design, and infographic creation. During my tenure as a Marketing and Communications Manager at the Association, I designed and produced seven issues of Savour.
