Our origins
Our roots extend to the very beginning of the kiwifruit industry
Formed by pioneer kiwifruit growers seeking better ways to care for their produce
In 1987 we started coolstoring kiwifruit in Te Puke
In 1990 we started packing kiwifruit for local growers
In the 1990s we started working with land holders to grow kiwifruit
Since 2005 we’ve been extending our geographical reach and product range across New Zealand and Australia
