| KAWEKA LAUNCHES "MEAL FOR 1"! |
Nov 2007 |
Many of our loyal diners have commented that it's a shame that Kaweka couldn't manufacture their own microwaveable rice to Kaweka's demonstrated high standards.
Now with our new international standard plant opening in Hastings, we can.
Kaweka proudly presents "Meal for 1". Initially three in the range at an attractive $5.49 (RRP), "Meal for 1" serves a 200gm portion of Meat, Vegetables and Sauce with a 200gm sachet of microwaveable ethnic Rice as an accompaniment. A hearty complete meal, previously not possible, but now becoming available through good supermarkets nationwide.

June 2007 |
After the success in the New Zealand Supermarket trade it quickly became apparent that Kaweka would be unable to supply it's first export customer. The plant was rapidly becoming full with just the domestic business!
A decision was made by the Board of Directors to bring the planned new plant forward by a year and to put the next phase of Kaweka into reality now. The new plant will be commissioned at 1454 Omahu Road (five minutes inland from the old plant) mid June with the first export order rolling out the doors less than a month later!

February 2007 |
Kaweka presented it's wares to MP's and guests at the first ever Hawkes Bay Expo at the Beehive.
As part of an initiative by local MP's Chris Tremaine and Craig Foss, Kaweka stood shoulder to shoulder with other Hawkes Bay food and wine producers to present the delights possible from this beautiful corner of New Zealand.

2006 - 2007 |
Kaweka has presented at over 20 Expos nationally to date. We have sampled to over 40,000 people so far.
Feedback has been excellent with many now commenting that Kaweka is already in their pantry and in use as everyday meals, meals at work, on boats, camping, tramping and as emergency rations (although they always eat them and need to buy more!).
