Tāpoi
The MBR Tāpoi programme is a NZ Māori Tourism initiative designed to provide tailored support to Māori tourism businesses to help them through the effects of COVID-19.
This includes helping businesses work out if they need to diversify, restructure, and in some cases hibernate, sell or close.
The ultimate goal is to help Māori tourism businesses to survive.
To qualify for the MBR Tāpoi Programme, businesses must:
- Have been established prior to COVID-19 (before March 2020); and
- Have a minimum of one Māori shareholder/owner; and
- Demonstrate that tourism made up/makes up a portion of revenue either via international or domestic visitors.
You do not need to be a NZ Māori Tourism member.
Types of services include:
- business advisory and planning,
- accounting and financial services,
- compliance (risk and safety management/requirements),
- marketing
You can register for NZ Māori Tourism’s MBR Tāpoi Programme here.
If you have any pātai, then please contact the team at tapoi@maoritourism.co.nz
Once registered, someone will be in contact within 24 hours to arrange a zui with our advisors to fully explore the support you require.
