“In good times and bad, I always feel like I’ve got the whole Riverlock team behind me.”

Dan Morrison - Kiwifruit Grower, Opotiki
About Us

We're growers, 

just like you.

At Riverlock, we’re more than experts in kiwifruit production, packing, cool storage, and orchard management - we’re growers, just like you.

As growers, we understand what it feels like to wake up before dawn, checking weather reports and hoping for the perfect crop. We know the pride that comes from a great harvest - and the heartbreak when things don't go as planned. That’s why we treat your fruit like it’s our own, handling every vine, every tray, and every step of the process with meticulous care and dedication.

With a proven track record and grower-driven expertise, we partner with you to navigate the complexities of kiwifruit production, from orchard to market, so you can focus on what you do best - growing.

We’re not a big corporate; we’re local, we’re family-owned, community-rooted, and proud of our humble beginnings. Our results speak for themselves, because at Riverlock, actions always speak louder than words.
