We’re driven by a commitment to leave our world in a better place for the generations who follow. By prioritising sustainability, traceability and accountability we aim to lead the world in growing the highest quality wool in the most environmentally sensitive way.

We’re always looking for new growers to join the Wools of New Zealand family. If you’d like to learn more about our business and the opportunities we provide Kiwi farmers, then don’t hesitate to get in touch.
