There’s not a lot that we can say to adequately describe the past few weeks in our city.  We extend our love and best wishes as we get ready to carry on together.

To those of you in our White Tie family who have suffered loss, particularly to those who have lost close loved ones, of which there are several, we offer our deepest sympathies.  Our thoughts are with you every day.

We continue to move forward as is the White Tie way, the Canterbury way.    We have lost ‘Petespace’ our storage warehouse and the Kilmore St kitchen has suffered and is not suitable for food production.  So we have moved our head office to 84 Gasson Street permanently – call in for a cuppa or a cuddle any time.  We are operating as normal at Christchurch airport and our events chef team is operating out of the Pemberton kitchen in Prebbleton.  Our priority is to build a new kitchen at our Gasson Street site.  We are fragmented but more together than ever before.

As a Company we are committed to rebuilding and emerging a tighter, better and more together White Tie.  We have served Christchurch and Canterbury for more than 12 years and will continue to do so for many more.  We are optimistic about the future, Christchurch will soon become the city of opportunity and will be a wonderful platform for all the creative, inspirational contributions we can all make.

We have never been more proud of the people that make up this Company and this city, than we are now.  You have shown your resilience and your spirit.

With much love to you all, the Duncan and White Tie families.
