TE TAUMATA
E hika mā, kuhu mai ki to tatou whare!
We’re the government’s first port of call for trade discussions with Māori. With a network of more than 700+ whānau followers, we work with Māori businesses to deliver better trade outcomes for Māori and a more prosperous future for our whānau and communities.
"Preserving our planet for future generations is the number one goal of this kaupapa and permanent regenerating forests is our way forward."
Like every business, trust and organisation, Te Arawa Fisheries has carbon emissions. However, unlike other operations, we have the opportunity to offset our discharge in such a way that can support our iwi and our whānau.
Doing our bit to address climate change is important to us. As part of our Climate Change Strategy, we are embarking on a significant kaupapa to offset our emissions by growing trees on Māori land for carbon credits, providing benefits for everyone involved, as well as the wider community.
Carbon credits have a tangible value through the Emissions Trading Scheme. One carbon credit represents one tonne of carbon dioxide (or equivalent for other greenhouse gases). Carbon credits can then be sold to companies who need them to meet their carbon offset obligations.
Preserving our planet for future generations is the number one goal of this kaupapa and permanent regenerating forests is our way forward. Forests provide a safe haven for our endangered wildlife and native flora to rejuvenate, while they also enhances our environment by stabilising the land and preventing runoff into waterways.

Our origins, the migration, arrival, and our rohe.Māori AND TRADE
Covid-19 has triggered unprecedented change where one-in-four whānau jobs are now at risk.
Māori businesses will play a significant role in post-lockdown recovery, employing whānau to produce products and services to be traded again with other countries.
It is through hard work and knowledge that we will achieve.
Mā te kaha o te mahi i roto i te mātauranga, ka whakawhiwhia.
