A range of industries based in Rotorua export their product offshore
Many businesses operating within the agribusiness and forestry and wood processing sectors are known for being heavy exporters, however there are additional companies thriving within the district whose export activities aren't that well known.
One such business that often flies under the radar is Vortex Group. Founded in 2015 with a small team of engineers, they’ve rapidly grown and are now delivering hydropower solutions across New Zealand, the Pacific and Southeast Asia.
With growing demand for renewable energy, Vortex Group is in the position to enable a more sustainable future with a range of ‘water to wire’ solutions ranging from small turbines to run instruments in locations that are isolated from power infrastructure, through to power generators that are supporting the national grid.
