Grow Shareholder Success

Harness our co-operative spirit to be first for New Zealand food and fibre inputs.

How we Create Value

We seek to operate a sustainable business with regard to the interests of all our major stakeholders in terms of profitability, people and planet.

Our inputs are the resources (or ‘capitals’) that we use in the process of creating value for our shareholders. These are deployed in or affect our business activities.
 

Outputs – ultimately the outcomes of how we create value – are what emerge from the interactions between us and our major stakeholders as part of our day-to-day business, including impact on the communities we operate in.

Outputs and Outcomes

We get best value for our shareholders in the form of relevant solutions, best pricing, and rebates and rewards that
improve on-the-ground performance.

We support local communities and are proud to be an integral stakeholder in regional New Zealand.

We provide both shareholders and vendors with consolidated invoicing, collection services and credit terms for their products and services.

We provide the inputs and solutions to Grow Shareholder Success.

We provide a great place to work, that is safe and inclusive and affords our people opportunities to develop.

We support NZ farmers and growers to create a sustainable agricultural future in which everyone will prosper.
