Living up to its namesake, what more can you expect than a gigantic presence arriving on the shores of New Zealand.
Filled with state-of-the art Häfele product, Kong departs Australia at the end of June to arrive in Christchurch in time to attend the NKBA Designers Retreat and National Conference in Queenstown on 8-11 July.

If you miss the bus, no worries, we’ll bring the bus to you. Kong will disembark at the Lyttelton dockside. Hard to be missed weighing in at 14 tonnes. Kong is 12.5m in length, 2.6 m wide and 3.9m high, adorned with Häfele branding and ready to conquer the country.
He will be thumping his way northward visiting showrooms, manufacturers and all who would like to
discover the latest Häfele functionality highlighted onboard. The official Christchurch launch will be held at the Häfele Christchurch Design Centre on Friday 16 July.
After conquering the South Island – Kong will cross the Cook Strait and thunder his way towards Wellington to show off his wares. Then moving his way towards Auckland, Kong will make his presence felt in towns along the way.
On his arrival in Auckland, Kong will be the star of the Auckland Homeshow, residing in Hall 3, Stand 301.
Häfele will launch Kong over three nights with our guests attending drinks, nibbles and entertainment in the VIP room, and then visiting Kong downstairs, as well as viewing exciting 2010 new product releases on the stand.
From here Kong will travel around the north island visiting customers, architects and educational institutions along the way until December 2010. Enjoying a quick rest before continuing his trip in Wellington and surrounds until March 2011 when he will finally board the boat to return home.

In my opinion it is a very creative and perspective idea. Certainly it will reach the wider raceme of recipients and it will arouse the stronger interest than the ordinary exhibition. Besides I think that it is very important to establish a direct contact with the customers and demonstrate them possible ways to use certain products with a view to facilitate living and functioning. If I only had an opportunity to participate in such a display, without hesitation I would take part.
