The company is a New Zealand business listed on the NZ Stock Exchange (NZX:PGW). PGW is a market leader in many of the segments in which it operates including rural retail supplies, horticultural supplies, pasture improvements, livestock, animal health and nutrition, wool, water, real estate, insurance, as well as technical advice and support.

First Light Farms
First Light is based in New Zealand and is the home of the world's best grass fed meat. Back in 2003, when we were thinking about this revolutionary new meat company that was going to take the world by storm, we referred to it as Pipeline. None of us had been to Hawaii, we called it Pipeline because our idea was to connect the people who make the product with the people who eat it, transparently and directly. All our animals are 100% grass-fed on free-range pastures, as nature intended. The ingredients on the packet are fresh water, clean air, and sunshine. It is almost an unfair advantage having New Zealand as our farm, but the best grass in the world isn’t enough to stake our claim to having the best grass-fed meat in the world. Everything we do is focused around producing meat that is tasty, tender and juicy every time. We cannot give you the formula, suffice to say it includes special genetics, New Zealand’s best farmers, stress-free animals, and a supply chain managed by people who understand and value the perfect steak.

Rata Equipment - Helping Farmers Achieve More
Back in the 80's on a Manawatu family farm, a farmer started to make attachments to use on his loader & also provided engineering services to other manufacturing company's in the area. Loaders back then were a relatively new thing & not widespread like they are today, very soon he got a name for making top quality loader attachments & doing top quality work, this meant he became so busy he had to stop farming & start manufacturing full time, the company took its name from the farm it was originally started on (Rata Park) & became known as Rata Industries to reflect the range of services it offered across the agricultural & industrial spectrum. Fast forward 30 odd years through the 90's, up to today. Now we are located in the agricultural heartland of Canterbury & have gone onto to become New Zealand's leading brand of locally manufactured Tractor & Telehandler attachments. Over those years we also acquired a range of Cultivation & Aeration Equipment & the Vogal brand of fertiliser spreaders, of which we produce & distribute throughout a nationwide network of dealers. Changes over the years have seen us develop & acquire our own vast range of agricultural equipment, this specific focus in the agricultural equipment sector has lead to our products become known as 'Rata Equipment' today.
