Smart choice for avocado growers

KauriPak is a 100 per cent family-owned and operated business based in Katikati, which serves the wider Bay of Plenty, packing solely for Team Avocado Trust members who supply New Zealand’s leading marketers Southern Produce and AVOCO, says KauriPak director Linda Flegg.

“We operate a dedicated avocado-only packhouse which allows us to provide a year-round service for our growers, including picking, bin delivery and pick-up, packing, coolstorage, ripening and distribution.”

The key attribute is KauriPak’s ability to provide a complete service package which caters for all your growing, packing and marketing needs. 

“We fully subscribe to the Team philosophy ‘Grower Powered – Market Driven’, and are dedicated to ensuring you get the best possible Orchard Gate Return.”

“With more than 30 years of industry experience, KauriPak is well qualified to help you with your crop. 

“Our attention to detail, careful harvesting and handling, and efficient packing, will help maximise export pack-outs and deliver quality that allows our marketers to achieve the best returns. Flow planning is critical and we endeavour to ensure all growers get equal opportunities,” says Linda. 

In keeping with the growth of the NZ avocado industry, KauriPak is currently expanding and improving its facilities. This will increase capacity and futureproof the business to cater for avocado growers.  

“We are committed to our growers. Our mission is to maximise our grower’s returns through efficiency, attention to detail and quality professional, service, while maintaining standards set by the Team Avocado Trust, AVOCO and the avocado industry.

“This season has shown the smart choice is to be a supplier to AVOCO – come and join KauriPak.”
