Tender Details
Tender Description
The Trust is seeking expressions of interest from parties wishing to participate in a competitive sales process to acquire cutting rights for part of their Te Ngahere o Te Puna Tōpu o Hokianga tree crop near Mitimiti in the North Hokianga, Northland.
As a Māori organisation, we are particularly interested in growing the internal capacity of our people and organisation. This includes but is not limited to providing work to local whānau who can meet the requirements of the industry from operations to management. Proposals that contribute towards the achievement of those aspirations would be considered advantageous.
The Trust values our people, environment, communities and follows tīkanga Māori principals. Organisations who align with these values and are willing to collaborate with us to ensure they are upheld, are preferred.
