Nau Mai, Haere Mai
Our Trust is located on the Matapihi peninsular,
Tauranga, New Zealand.
Our core business is horticulture.
We are an industry leader in the production and
harvesting of kiwifruit.
Our Trust
Ngai Tukairangi Trust emerged from the threat of urbanisation on the Matapihi peninsula, with a clear vision to retain and develop the land to better meet the needs of our people.
Guided by the first chair Turirangi Te Kani the trust ventured into the kiwifruit industry and since this time Ngai Tukairangi Trust has grown to be one of the leading Māori owned trusts within New Zealand.
