The finalist will be announced this month. ATEED's Auckland North business growth experts meet each business to conduct a one-hour 'health check' which identifies parts of the business which could improve. "We also develop a suggested action plan which includes tasks for the business owner, and things ATEED can do. Together, we can increase the business' potential, and contribute towards Auckland's export-led economic growth."
