moana mark

MoanaMark is a not-for-profit organisation looking for donors (business or individuals) to support research projects that dramatically improve marine environment.

For example:We developed MoanaMark in a similar manner to the widely recognised Qualmark certification (a mark that acknowledges businesses excellence).  Similarly, we plan to support and acknowledge exceptional local businesses that help us deliver marine conservation research initiatives. 

We have a simple three-tier system to suit all. Businesses can choose the contribution tier that best suits them.

While MoanaMark is a national initiative, we are currently certifying businesses in Kaikōura – our national marine hotspot.

Becoming a certified MoanaMark business has a wide range of benefits including:

  • A straightforward and low stress pathway to support local marine research initiatives
  • Providing instant recognition for customers that your business is giving back to the environment
  • Supporting sustainable tourism
  • Encouraging others to support similar environmental initiatives
  • Providing leadership opportunities through involvement and employee engagement
  • Improving company reputation and stakeholder confidence
  • Increasing customer base
  • Providing talking points for your business

Environmentally conscious consumers value businesses that hold the same values. By becoming a certified MoanaMark business, you can attract those customers and keep their loyalty through your shared values.
