Our brand
Toitū is translated in Te Reo Māori as ‘to actively sustain’ and was inspired by the whakatauki:
Toitū te whenua, toitū te mana, toitū te mauri ora.
Hold fast to our land, hold fast to our pride, hold fast to all living things.
It contains within it the concept of accountability, and connecting individual actions to achieve collective outcomes.
This is the meaning behind the tohu that appears on our certification marks.
We’re here to help you make a lasting impact.
