What is a BID Programme?

BIDs are business areas within Auckland where local business and property owners have agreed to work together to provide value to the collective business community by delivering a suite of economic activities.

The Mangere Bridge Village BID is made up of more than 45 permanent members who are either landlords or business owners within our boundaries of the village centre plus a smaller number of Associate Members.

Auckland Council supports Business Associations operating BID programmes as set out in the BID policy 2022.

All BIDs are separate entities that set a targeted rate at their Annual General Meeting and this is collected by Auckland Council in return for meeting their BID Policy requirements.

How to become a member?

Membership: If your business resides in a commercial property within the existing Business Improvement District (BID) then you qualify as a member.

This page outlines our current BID area.

Associate Membership: If your business is based in Mangere Bridge, but outside the existing BID boundary, working from home or from a non-commercial property, then you can become an Associate Member of the Mangere Bridge Village Business Association.
