Amotai connects buyers to Māori and Pasifika-owned businesses and promotes supplier diversity and development in Aotearoa.

Their experience is that Māori and Pasifika businesses are the untapped change agents in creating a more inclusive, and more sustainable, New Zealand economy.  Entrepreneurship is one of the main ways Māori and Pasifika can build wealth for their families and communities, and more likely to employ Māori and Pasifika peoples than other businesses.

Māori and Pasifika businesses can become suppliers with Amotai by registering online here.

Amotai also provides practical advice and support to their buyer members so they can successfully engage with more Māori and Pasifika-owned businesses.  This practice, commonly known as supplier diversity and development, is a dynamic and evolving discipline.

Amotai are thrilled to announce their brand-new National Meet the Buyer Roadshow.  This exciting initiative will take place over the next 12 months across the motu.

The purpose of this series of events is to connect Amotai buyers with Māori and Pacific suppliers, and to raise awareness of procurement processes, buyer opportunities, and ways for buyers to better engage with Amotai suppliers.  To see the National Calendar click here.
