He aha te mea nui o te ao: He tangata, he tangata, he tangata – What is the most important thing in the world? It is the people, it is the people, it is the people

Bringing a Māori world view into the workplace has a competitive edge nationally and internationally, as the next generation of consumers purchase based on knowledge of a product, its integrity, minimal impact on the environment, and safety. The work we do for Whānau-level businesses is our bread and butter. We understand that these businesses often have cost constraints, and any accounting or taxation work we undertake for you will be done quickly and efficiently. We can also assist with funding, business mentoring and support, so that even the youngest entrepreneurs can see make their Whānau proud.

How BDO can help:

• Business and strategic planning
• Organisational value setting
• Taxation advice
• Accounting and advisory support
• Transactional support
• Due diligence - business valuations
• People and performance development.
• Funding, grants and capital raising

For the Māori economy, the opportunities are endless. There are always new ways to invest, new industries to get into and new markets to sell to. As you make a profit, so too will you sustain the people and the planet, and make a positive difference to the land and the communities you operate in. At BDO New Zealand, we have a true passion for the work we do with you. We're proud to support a sector that cares so passionately for the world around it, and we'll be with you every step of the way.
