The Rangitīkei is home to many successful businesses, both small and large, in diverse and varied sectors.
With strong community support to shop locally and visitors coming through our District via state highways 1 and 3, retail shopping is a robust and growing industry with new developments taking shape constantly.
Tourism is a high growth sector with many fantastic businesses already in operation. Farm-stays and B’n’B’s continue to grow in popularity. Large business thrives in the district due our advantageous location.
Rangitīkei is home to traditional and niche market farming. Touring the countryside, you are likely to find the usual sheep and cattle along with alpaca, deer and a growing number of farmers working hard on sustainability, environmental care and animal welfare.
Marton has been home to New Zealand's malt production since beer brewing began. The success of this now extends to an export trade and continues
to be the source of the country’s main supply of malt. The district’s rich soil sees a wide range of horticultural businesses including vineyards, organic produce and award winning olive oil. Through the success of all the sectors we show strength and prosper together as the Rangitīkei.
