This website is owned and maintained by the Mairangi Bay Business Association. It is a directory of local businesses in Mairangi Bay Village and a community resource for residents and visitors to find information about the area. 

The first shop was a general store, built in 1906 by Mr Pond. Once the Harbour Bridge was built, the area began to develop and Mairangi Bay Village was the first Auckland area to open on Saturday mornings. As the number of businesses increased they recognised the need for some sort of business association. The Mairangi Bay Businessmens’ Association was formed and operated successfully for many years.

In 2008 the association applied to the Auckland Council to become a Business Improvement District (BID) and changed their name to the Mairangi Bay Business Association (MBBA). As a BID, member businesses pay yearly rates to the Association and this money is spent on projects that make the most of Mairangi Bay Village, as a shopping and business area, and as a community. The Association employs a dedicated Co-ordinator to develop new ideas, with a budget to do so. 

Membership

All property owners within the Mairangi Bay town centre, who pay the annual targeted BID rate and their tenants, are entitled to be members of the Business Association. Other businesses based in Mairangi Bay but outside the BID (BID AREA MAP BELOW) can apply to MBBA to become Associate Members. For an annual fee they enjoy access to association resources and support and benefit from marketing opportunities.
