Hancocks will celebrate 150 years since its foundation by an interesting character called Thomas Hancock in 1859. Hancocks has a strong and colourful history and we all should be proud that the original company is now back being 100% owned and operated by a New Zealand family that is committed to its people, committed to its brands, committed to the industry and committed to its objectives. Today Hancocks is focused on building and growing successful brands both existing and new, increasing the effectiveness of our sales and marketing team and delivering on superior customer service.
