PUBTALK
KICK OFF
The 2018 Super Rugby, NRL and AFL seasons are
now underway, as are hundreds of tipping competitions
being run in our pubs across the state. Best of luck
with your footy promotions throughout the season.
If you require assistance with clarifying rules around
incentives and advertising please contact the QHA.
It was great to see many familiar faces, and to
meet new hoteliers, at the AHG Expo in Brisbane in
early March. I hope you were all able to take away
valuable insights and ideas to implement in your
business. Large exhibitions of this nature can often
be a whirlwind for attendees, particularly with all of
the bright lights and big sounds of gaming hardware.
If you missed any contacts or would like any further
information on any of the products or services please
contact me directly and I will be happy to put you in
touch with the appropriate corporate partners.
PUBS, POTS AND PROFITS – TOWNSVILLE
For the first time in Queensland, CUB together with
the QHA will be hosting the Pubs, Pots & Profits forum
for hoteliers and key staff from around the Townsville

leading experts in the industry, focusing on business
development initiatives for your hotel. The event will
be held at the Sun Hotel, Mundingburra on Tuesday
20 March from 10am to 2pm. Morning tea and a
networking lunch will be included, thanks to PFD Food
Services. To register attendance for this FREE event
simply contact the QHA.
GOLD COAST HOTELIERS BREAKFAST
Thank you to the hoteliers who attended the QHA
Gold Coast Hoteliers Breakfast held at the Robina
Tavern in February. The feedback from the event has
been positive with guests enjoying presentations
from representatives of the Commonwealth Games,
OLGR and industry partners. PFD Food Services
again showcased the quality fresh produce they
have available to all licenced venues right across the
state and special thanks must go to Tom McGregor,
Stephanie Carlsson and the Gold Coast PFD Team.
Thank you again to Barry Fitzgibbons and Damien
Stephen for their efforts in hosting the breakfast.
We wish all Gold Coast hotels every success in trade
throughout the Commonwealth Games event in April!
