New Membership availability

The Australia and New Zealand Association - KwaZulu-Natal founded in 1934 in Durban can currently accommodate an increase in membership.

The Association was formed in 1934 during a period when quality wool was in over supply in Australia and no doubt in New Zealand at the time and the industry arranged for Mr Roy Faulks was asked to set up a slipper factory in Durban to produce woolen slippers to increase demand for exporting wool to South Africa.

The initiative  was successful and the majority of employees were from both New Zealand and Australia. 

Roy Faulks founded the Association to enable employees to have access to both enjoy each other in social get togethers and include local South African residents.

The many social events arranged have been attracting increased popularity in recent years.

Similar ANZA Associations have been established in many other countries around the world and to the best of our knowledge ANZA-KZN is the oldest.

The current membership is predominately made up of South Africans who are married to or related to Australian and New Zealand persons.
