The Dunedin Market
A Student City With Scottish Roots.
Dunedin is shaped by its university, one of New Zealand's oldest and largest. Students make up a big share of the population during the academic year, driving demand for flats, food, fitness and nightlife, with sharp drops over summer when many head home.
The university and hospital also support a growing health tech and research sector, and software start-ups have found a home in the city. Tourism draws visitors to the Otago Peninsula's wildlife, historic architecture and cruise ship calls at Port Chalmers.
Locally, Dunedin's hills and suburbs, from St Clair to Mosgiel, have their own customers, and many businesses serve towns across Otago. We build campaigns for each audience, with honest tracking and month-to-month terms.
