Kaupapa | What we do

Established in 2023, Whāia Charitable Trust is an iwi supported organisation located in Tauranga Moana. Our focus is on achieving broader social outcomes through progressive procurement within the construction and infrastructure sector. Our dual role has us operating at both ends of the supply chain. On one side of the supply chain we provide business development support to build supplier capability and on the other side we work with agencies to enable participation through mitigated progressive procurement strategies. Through our kaupapa, Whāia is positioned to enable the creation of self-sustaining economic pathways for iwi, hapū and the wider community benefit.
