In 1912, the legendary Sir Apirana Ngata formed the Waiapu Farmers Company, first east Coast based Co-Op to support Maori freehold landowners in the rohe.Had Sir Apirana had access to the technology of today supported by the Treaty of Waitangi claims process, his commercial kaupapa, (had it not been for the political machinations of the pre WWII era), would have become an intergenerational success story in the evolution of the Co-Op business model in Aotearoa/NZ
