Being a long time Bay of Plenty local, Steve grew up around the time the Bay’s dairy farms and citrus orchards were being converted and developed by pioneers of the kiwifruit industry. His involvement transitioned from development of family land, into the post harvest and export sectors throughout the 1990’s. These businesses grew to support the increasing volumes and create the incredible infrastructure and profile the industry enjoys today. In addition to his kiwifruit involvement, Steve also developed nurseries, avocado orchards and his own successful manufacturing businesses in more recent years.

Steve and his wife Kellie along with their three children spent 16 years developing their own lifestyle block in Oropi. Now with their children embarking on their own life’s adventures, Steve’s passion for, and deep association with, the Bay of Plenty agribusiness and lifestyle sectors, along with a broad personal and professional network, create a unique platform for Steve to work with committed rural buyers and sellers. The Bay of Plenty continues to grow and develop as one of New Zealand’s most exciting regions – and it’s not a bad place to live either!

Coupled with the comprehensive support and profile created through Bayleys powerful marketing and brand exposure, Steve’s energy, integrity and innovation will see you well placed to achieve the best results for you and your property.
