This site is also licensed with MAF as a transitional facility that can handle quarantine class 2 imported grains. In 2000 the business expanded by importing a new Law Denis grain dryer from England. Additional silos were purchased from a grain silo complex in Fielding. This site was dismantled and reassembled in Tuakau. We are now the largest privately NZ owned grain and drying complex in New Zealand. Our capacity full is approximately 20000 tonnes. We store primarily maize, barley and wheat. "Wet" maize is brought in from surrounding districts and as far afield as the Bay of Plenty which is dried and stored under contract to the grain owners. Barley stored is generally from the South Island and Australia.
