Developing business

The Māori Trustee team works with owners who wish to significantly increase the value/return of their whenua through new approaches to managing their asset as a business.

This could be through entering into joint ventures, changing land use or investing, for example in stock, to be positioned to gain more value from operations on the land - see how scale helped owners in Te Rua o Te Moko build value.

We can support owners build a development plan with:

• Detailed data on potential land use
• Data on land/industry trends and issues
• Feasibility studies for changing land use and/or business focus
• Identifying potential business partners
• Negotiating with owners of neighbouring land blocks to create larger scale operations
• Set up of governance arrangements
• Business planning
• Facilitation of finance.
