'''Fletcher Challenge''' was a [[multinational corporation]] from New Zealand. It was formed in 1981 by the merger of [[Fletcher Holdings]], [[Challenge Corporation]] and [[Tasman Pulp and Paper]]. It had holdings in construction, forestry, building, and energy, initially just within New Zealand and then internationally as well, and at one time was the largest company in New Zealand. In 2001 it was split into three companies, Fletcher Challenge Forests, [[Fletcher Building]] (incorporating [[Fletcher Construction]]), and [[Rubicon (New Zealand)|Rubicon]].
