Introducing Colin Harvey:

2009 Enterprise North Shore

Hall Of Fame Laureate


Colin Harvey, who’s widely recognised for his tremendous contributions to the New Zealand agricultural industry through Ancare, was last night inducted as the 2009 Enterprise North Hall Of Fame Laureate at North Harbour Stadium.


Mr. Harvey and his wife Mary were acknowledged before an audience of peers, past laureates, several Councillors and His Worship the Mayor by Ian Watson, Chairman of the Board of Trustees for Enterprise North Shore. In his speech, Mr. Harvey explained that the most rewarding aspect of his career was that “mates from Veterinary School at Massey University became my customers. We worked together to solve real problems for farmers together” he explained.


Mr. Harvey, a 2008 recipient of the Insignia of an Officer of the New Zealand Order of Merit, established Ancare International in 1985 and is a respected leader in the animal health industry supplying animal healthcare products to the New Zealand market and is a continually growing force internationally.


The Enterprise North Shore Hall Of Fame was established in 2004 to acknowledge and celebrate exemplary efforts in North Shore business and the community. Laureates have had a positive impact on economic growth and business success and each embodies an entrepreneurial spirit and local mindedness.


Past Hall Of Fame Laureates include Ralph Roberts, Jim and Geoff Smale, Stephen Tindall, Graeme Avery, David Levene, Peter Maire, Diane Forman, Peter Menzies, Ian Calderwood, David Charlesworth and of course the newest laureate Colin Harvey.
