When it comes to New Zealand born camping brands, nothing gets bigger than Zempire Camping Equipment.

Their entire range of products is built specifically to handle the rigours of the NZ climate making them an ideal option for Family & Adventure campers. If a product can stand up to it here in NZ, it’s pretty good for the rest of the world.
The first thing you will notice about Zempire products is the finer details as if the product designers have thought through the lens of the user. And this is exactly what has occurred. Zempire’s head product developer Richard grew up in the rugged North Island plateau experiencing the best & the worst of NZ weather.
