Macaulay Motors - Supporting Our Community
Community has always been at the heart of Macaulay Motors. For more than 90 years, the support we've received has allowed our business to grow. We've always believed that being part of a community means more than simply doing business there. It's about supporting the people, organisations, and events that help our communities thrive.
Whether it's backing local sport, helping charities and fundraisers, supporting community events, or getting behind organisations making a difference, we're proud to play our part. Below are our current key sponsorships, along with a small selection of photos from some of the many groups, events, and initiatives we've been fortunate to support over the years.
Current Key Sponsorships
Macaulay Motors is proud to be the driving force behind the Southland Sharks since 2010!
We're pleased to continue supporting the team with vehicles to help them get around throughout the season. Having players driving sign-written vehicles around town also allows them to promote the Southland Sharks’ brand in the community.

Read More » The Southland Youth Futures programme was established in 2014 and Macaulay Motors are thrilled to have been one of the founding members. As part of this programme we visit schools, promoting career pathways in the primary sector to Year 10 and 11 students; conducting mock interviews with students; arranging on-site visits to see our workshops in action; and providing information about on-the-job training such as through an apprenticeship.
We believe we have a corporate responsibility to promote our industry to youth, especially considering the projected labour shortages in the sector for the Southern region.
