Vector Group Charitable Trust: Driving Te Puke’s Food Future

The Power Behind the Produce: Vector Group & Te Puke’s Kai Resilience Movement

Behind many of Te Puke’s most impactful community initiatives stands the Vector Group Charitable Trust. Their commitment to fostering a stronger, more resilient community is vividly demonstrated through their overarching kai-focused banner, Grow Te Puke.

Their strategic approach, coupled with passionate community engagement, is transforming Te Puke’s food landscape. This local dedication feeds into the larger national vision of the Kai Resilience Co-operative, which aims to connect and empower similar initiatives across Aotearoa.
