Hive Site Development

If required our team can undertake the development of hive sites for you in areas where no natural sites exist. From our experience this can be very valuable in remote, hard to access blocks as it allows sites to be developed right in the heart of your Manuka resource and in the most sheltered, warmest areas possible.

Transportation

We can take care of transportation of your hives from your designated pick up spot and deliver them to the launch site.

Mid-season Checks

We can assist you with completing a mid-season check of your hives and flying in additional honey boxes if required to ensure you maximise on production in a good season.

Human Sling

Our pilots are CAA certified to undertake human sling operations, allowing us to assist you in accessing some of the most remote backcountry Manuka resource where there are hive sites but no suitable area to land a helicopter. Our human sling capability also comes in very handy with our hive site development work.

Their professionalism, planning, communications, safety procedures and flexibility to adapt to constantly changing situations to get the job done has been second to none.
