Todd Heller

Founder of Hellers

"It has been a wonderful and successful relationship with Rangatira, which has been marked with many milestones - from our Auckland factory built in 2005 through to a world-class production facility established in Kaiapoi in 2011. Rangatira was pivotal in our growth, including acquisitions such as Hutton's Kiwi, Santa Rosa poultry, Gramart sauces and Walsh's meats."
