Miss Grand New Zealand is a national female beauty pageant title awarded to New Zealand representatives competing in the Miss Grand International pageant.[1][2][3] The first titleholder was Rachel Hope Crofts,[4] who previously won the Miss Model of the World New Zealand in the Miss World New Zealand 2013 pageant.[5] Rachel represented New Zealand in the first Miss Grand International in Thailand but was unplaced.[6]
From 2014 to 2019, the country representatives for Miss Grand International were either directly elected through the Miss World New Zealand pageant,[1][3][7] or assigned one of the runners-up to the title.[2][8] The contract between Miss World New Zealand and Miss Grand International was discontinued in late 2019 after declining to send a New Zealand candidate to partake in the 2019 international tournamentinVenezuela due to security concerns. Since then, no New Zealand representatives at the Miss Grand International.[9]
After six consecutive years of participating from 2013 to 2018, New Zealand representatives have never obtained any placements in Miss Grand International.[6][10][11][12][13]
