About the Kiwi Trademark

Buy New Zealand Made is an organisation dedicated to promoting and supporting Kiwi-made products and services.

With a focus on authenticity, quality, and sustainability, we seek to strengthen the local economy and reduce the environmental impact of imports by encouraging consumers to choose Kiwi-made goods.

The iconic Kiwi trademark is licensed to businesses by the Buy New Zealand Made Campaign.

The trademark signifies that a product or service is New Zealand Made according to the rules of the Fair Trading Act. As a registered trademark, it has a strict set of rules governing how it can be used.

Our People

History

The iconic Kiwi trademark continues to be one of the most recognisable brands in New Zealand because the Kiwi has been preserved and protected throughout its three-decades-long history.

While the Kiwi has remained ahead of the curve, there have been key evolutions in the Kiwi trademark over its history.
