Astro Hospitality is celebrating 25 years of helping New Zealand’s hotels deliver exceptional guest experiences – and they’re marking the milestone with a brand refresh, an expanded product range, and a new North Island Distribution Centre to support their next era of growth.
Founded in 2000 by Richard Beatson, Astro began with a simple promise: supply quality essentials that make life easier for hospitality teams. Today – led by Richard and his five sons – Astro is one of New Zealand’s leading hospitality partners. It’s a company built on family values, practical problem-solving, and a deep understanding of the hospitality world.
To mark their 25th anniversary, Astro introduces a bold new brand refresh that reflects who Astro is today: a forward-thinking, design-led brand that partners with the industry to help hospitality professionals do what they do best. But more than a new look, it’s a recommitment to the ethos behind Astro’s tagline: We Make Exceptional Easy.
“Every hotel defines exceptional differently,” says Managing Director Reuben Beatson. “For some, it’s five-star luxury. For others, it’s simply delivering comfort with heart. Our job is to remove the friction behind the scenes so our partners can create their version of exceptional – whatever that looks like.”
Astro supplies over 4,000 SKUs, delivered next day, anywhere in New Zealand. From back-of-house to bedside, they’re known for simplifying operations and being the team behind your team. The new Distribution Centre will boost speed and efficiency even further, supporting the growing needs of their hotel, motel, and food and beverage customers.
Astro’s evolution is backed by a deep understanding of local needs and global trends, with a relentless focus on practical, high-performing products and smart, reliable service. Their strength lies in being a proactive partner, not just a supplier.
Despite the growth, the heart of Astro remains unchanged: a family-run, New Zealand-based business built on long-term partnerships and a genuine care for people.
In short? Astro might have a new look, but their commitment to redefining hospitality excellence is stronger than ever.
New look. Bigger range. Same exceptional partnership.
Astro Hospitality — Making Exceptional Easy, Since 2000.
