Rotoiti9 Trust

"I have much pleasure in writing a reference for Rob Angus of Waipa Forest Management Ltd, who has worked diligently for us managing our forest on Rotoiti9 Trust, situated at Lake Rotoehu between Kennedy and Otautu Bays.

"When we first met Rob, we were seeking quotes on cutting down a plantation of self sown pines. Rob not only gave us the highest return, he took care of us with our lack of knowledge and has lived up to every recommendation he has given us. We have come from having a substandard forest portfolio to a position that we see we are able to stand alone on our whenua’s future. We can say this because Rob has got us the best prices and always been mindful that he is doing the best for us. He has been respectful to our whenua and always contracts our own people to plant prune and harvest.

"I have no hesitation in recommending Rob to manage any forestry operation."
