Te Puke
About Location
Just 30km from Tauranga lies Te Puke – a thriving rural service town with a strong local economy and multicultural character. The name translates as ‘The Hill’ which is reflective of its location near the Papamoa Hills.
Globally known as the Kiwifruit Capital of the World, the town is a vital service centre for the horticultural industry – kiwifruit/avocado and also for the farming sector.
The town prides itself on its multiculturalism and hard working people – many of whom are drawn to the town for the seasonal fruit growing industries and the service businesses that support the horticultural and farming industries.
Being close to the Tauranga Eastern Link is a key advantage for Te Puke and its adjacent eastern settlements. This four-lane state highway, opened in 2016, has resulted in increased opportunities in the area for residential subdivision and industrial/commercial expansion.
