Consumer Trusted

Lamb & Hayward are proud to be an independently owned Canterbury funeral company maintaining the reputation for leading service standards within the funeral profession. We are working with Consumer NZ to lift the industry standards in consumer protection and price transparency. We aspire to a level of excellence that is unmatched, providing our client families with a genuinely caring experience that includes trustworthiness in all aspects of our service.

 

A New Zealand First – Consumer Trusted accreditation for Lamb and Hayward

In 2015, Consumer NZ developed its Trusted programme to recognise businesses that met the consumer watchdog’s strict code of conduct. This code ensures accredited businesses provide exceptional customer service and exceed the requirements of the Fair Trading Act, Consumer Guarantees Act and other consumer-related laws.

After meeting strict requirements, we are delighted to be the first funeral home to have achieved a Consumer NZ Trusted accreditation.

 

“To achieve Consumer Trusted status a business must meet all the specific principles in our Code of Conduct – this means we are confident that business will do right by its customers. There’s a rigorous process to follow before a business gets the Consumer Trusted tick, and we monitor Consumer Trusted businesses to ensure they consistently provide services of an exceptionally high standard.”

Consumer NZ Chief Executive, Jon Duffy

 

“As a proudly Canterbury-owned business which has been engaged in the community for nearly 100 years, our company foundations are firmly set in reliability and trustworthiness. Our intention is to continue to provide leadership within our profession so that our client families not only receive excellent care, but are guaranteed price transparency and consumer protection.”
