NZCU Steelsands Glenbrook

Background

In October 1977 the Personnel Division of New Zealand Steel were approached by two of the Company Consultation Committee Groups and the Social Club indicating an interest in the formation of a Credit Union on site.  Interest was sufficiently high to justify establishment of a Credit Union.  Steelsands Credit Union held its first meeting in June 1978 at NZ Steel Ltd.  By 20 September 1978 there were 54 members. Initially contributions to the Credit Union could only be by way of Payroll deduction.

Steelsands Credit Union currently trading as "NZCU Steelsands" has grown to a membership of 3720 as at 31 July 2017, which includes its three other Branches and now offer a wide range of Products and Services.
