Donate kai

If you have surplus kai to supply to us, we’d love to hear from you.

We would love to hear from food producers of any scale, whether you are a busy manufacturer or an individual with homegrown produce going to waste. It all counts. 

Being a supplier comes with benefits

Such as

  • Increasing awareness within your business of food waste and changing in-store practices

  • Reducing waste disposal costs (we will collect at no charge)

  • Creating a reputation of doing social good

  • Reducing your environmental impact, which increases the value of your brand and brings more people through your door

How it works

It’s as simple as giving us a call on 022 526 9452  (Whangārei) or 027 911 5580 (Moerewa) or emailing kiaora@whakaorakai.org

We’ll come and collect your quality food as soon as we can.

With warehouses in Whangārei, Moerewa and Kaikohe and a fleet of vans, we’ve got Northland covered. 

Become a Certified Whakaora Kai supplier

When you become our supplier, we will give you a certified badge that you can use across your marketing platforms too.

Social Return

Need more reasons to join us?

Check out this Social Return on Investment study AFRA recently carried out. They found out that every $1 invested in food rescue generated $4.50 of value, among many other compelling findings!

Looking for individual food support?

We don’t provide kai or food parcels directly to individual whānau. If you are seeking kai for yourself, please reach out to 155 Whare Kai if you are in Whangārei or check out the Family Services Directory to find details of your nearest foodbank.
