Sustainability
Ko au te whenua, te whenua ko au: I am the land, the land is me.
Wiri Business is committed to helping protect our landscape, flora and fauna. We are all guardians of Wiri and have a duty to ensure our businesses have strong sustainability practices.
Guardians of our land
The Puhinui Regeneration Project began in January 2022 and is helping to regenerate the land, waters and people of the Puhinui catchment. As part of our commitment to support our local environment, we’re pleased to announce that we are one of four partners sponsoring the Makaurau Marae Nursery for 2023/24 through the Sustainable Business Network.
The Puhinui Regeneration Programme relies on high quality locally sourced native plants to restore the Puhinui Stream. Makaurau Marae supply these whilst employing and training local youth.
Volunteer at a street clean up
Rubbish in our area is unsightly, attracts pests and does not reflect well on our district. We want Wiri Business District to be seen as a clean and tidy place to do business.
Do you or others at your workplace have a spare couple of hours or a volunteer day to use? We offer ongoing street clean up opportunities in the Wiri Business District, at a date to suit you. Contact info@wiribiz.org.nz for further information.
Inorganic / E-waste collections
Throughout the year, we offer low cost inorganic/e-waste collections for the businesses in our district. If you have items you would like recycled or would like further information on when the next collection will be, contact info@wiribiz.org.nz for further information.
