NZB Airfreight Sponsorship
NZB Airfreight is passionate about supporting horses in all disciplines, highlighted by various thoroughbred, standardbred, showjumping and showing sponsorships across the year.
Welfare is also at the heart of what we do, which is why we align closely with racehorses off the track, supporting them in their show of versatility, athleticism and second careers after racing.
