History of the NZICMA
The New Zealand Ice Cream Manufacturers Association was incorporated in 1927 - first members at that first meeting were W.A. Fisher, Frozen Products, Wellington; P.H. Ferguson, Robinson Ice Cream Co., Auckland; and H. Turner, Crystal Ice Cream, Dunedin. The first Chairman and President was H. Turner.

In 1953 the Association could claim 49 manufacturing members and 30 associate members.

The Association published its own magazine, "The Frostee Digest" from 1940 until 1972.

Pen Moore - fifty years of service
Pen Moore, who was Executive Secretary of the NZICMA for 50 years , retired from his position at the 76th Annual General Meeting and Conference held in Invercargill, June 2003.
A vote of thanks was given to Pen by Ray O'Connor of Tip Top Ice Cream for his service and dedication to the Ice Cream Association and industry over that period.
The Association presented Pen with a painting depicting Durville (the French Explorer) on his voyage to the Antartic, painted by his official artist on board.

Photo: Pen, left, is presented with his painting by Brian Simon and John Murphy, on behalf of the Association.

The new Executive Secretary is Jenny de Lisle who has been the assistant secretary of the Association for fifteen years. All contact details remain the same.
