Big changes for a local favourite! 🍎🌍

Te Mata Exports has officially rebranded to MG Group Exports.

The new look is all about reflecting their growing global reach—including a brand-new team over in the USA! It’s great to see a business with local roots expanding its footprint and strengthening its connection to the MG Group grower co-operative.

Check out the full story on their rebrand and what it means for the international produce market here:

📣Big news: Te Mata Exports has rebranded to MG Group Exports! This change better aligns us with our parent company, the MG Group, as we grow our presence in the USA and around the world. We are excited to continue delivering the same high-quality fresh produce to our customers. Thank you for your support as we begin this next chapter!🙌

🥁 Drumroll please. The results are in, and AvoGrey® Greenskin avocados are outstanding! These beauties won GOLD🥇 at this year's Outstanding Food Producer Awards. What makes this win even more special is the unique nature of this fruit. AvoGrey® is a specialised IP variety, grown with precision and exclusively marketed by the team here at MG. Seeing this exclusive variety recognised on such a prestigious stage is a huge win for our growers and our partners.

The judges were certainly impressed, noting: “It has a beautiful appearance. The skin is even and has an outstanding interior colour. It is a very good, true clean avocado flavour.”

We're absolutely thrilled by the news! Huge congratulations to all the fellow medalists—it's honestly inspiring to see so many amazing food producers in our backyard.
