Bunnings Trade’s hoodie, seen on the backs of Kiwi tradies across Aotearoa, has been given a makeover for Movember. The traditional teal hoodie has been redesigned in charcoal and adorned with the Movember motif. It can be found instore and online from November 7 for $49 with all profits going directly to Movember. “Our limited-edition hoodies are not only a fundraiser, but they’re also a tangible way to show support for men’s health and hopefully spark a conversation with a mate,” says Movember New Zealand country manager Robert Dunne. The two brands have collaborated each Movember for three years, raising $160k through various fundraising efforts, including co-branded merch items, Bunnings team member challenges and customer donations. Hot drinks for good Recent findings from Movember’s The Real Face of Men’s Health 2025 report show that one in three construction workers experienced serious psychological distress in the past month, over twice the national average for men. In New Zealand, suicide is the leading cause of death for men under 35, and three in four suicides are male. Dunne says: “Over the past three years, Bunnings’ support is helping to make a real difference in breaking down stigma, particularly in the trade and construction industry, and helping to enable us to work on improving men’s health across communities.” This Movember, Bunnings is going a step further, donating 10 cents from every hot drink sold in their cafes during November to charity. Customers can expect to see their hot drinks served in a Movember branded cup, with a QR code available for customer donations. Rally the team Matt Heinrich, head of Bunnings Trade NZ, says the team is committed to raising awareness around men’s mental health and wellbeing. “Supporting men’s mental health is a priority for us at Bunnings Trade. Joining forces with Movember again allows us to rally our team and local communities to support Kiwi men in a meaningful way. “We are hoping this campaign continues to spark meaningful conversations about men’s mental health.” Free Movember Trade Brekkie’s are being hosted at Bunnings Trade areas across the country on November 7 from 7 to 9am.
