Tai Tokerau Honey Ltd is a 100% Māori owned and operated beekeeping company, specialising in production of NZ's world famous Mānuka Honey, as well as other beautiful natural honey varieties. We are located in Kaitaia, in Aotearoa (New Zealand)'s beautiful Far North - a region known also as Te Taitokerau.

Our owners Rob and Lonnie grew up here and founded this honey business in 2009. They spent years focusing on producing high quality Mānuka Honey, and now sell through a global retailer network. Want to sell our honey? We'd love you to get in touch.

We currently run approximately 3000 hives, and while we are based in the beautiful Far North, over the summer honey-making season, we chase the Mānuka flower all over the North Island! We've managed hives as far south as Taranaki across the Central Plateau, out to East Cape, and many places in between to bring you our special Mānuka Honey range!

In 2016 we moved into our food-grade factory and offices with our extraction plant, and in 2017 our processing and packing plant went in - so we can proudly say we're in charge of our honey quality from our hives, right through to your hands!

Here at Tai Tokerau Honey Ltd, we have a strong tikanga (values and beliefs) that guide our daily operations and interactions. Our tikanga incorporates the way Māori see the world, and is based on the knowledge of our ancestors that has been passed down from generation to generation. We take great pride in maintaining healthy, happy bees, and our beekeepers, who do not always wear gloves, handle the hives with the care and respect they deserve.

Buying our natural honey means you're guaranteed an authentic honey... from our hives to your home.
