Matakana SuperFoods is a New Zealand-based, world leader in the research and marketing of new foods from New Zealand and around the globe, foods which contain unique qualities and super-nutrients that support health and wellbeing.
Matakana SuperFoods was founded 8 years’ ago by Dr Kevin Glucina (a world leader in superfood nutrition), and now has more than 70 lines of superfood products. As New Zealand’s original superfood company, Matakana SuperFoods was first to market with some of today’s favourite everyday products including, chia seeds, maqui, goji and acai berries, coconut sugar and fermented sauces, as well as their icon Supergreens and Supershake blends.
Health and wellbeing has always been a priority for Dr Glucina. Having spent the previous 30 years involved in the health industry, researching the benefits of superfoods is now his main passion. Back in the 80s and 90s and long before it was trending, Dr Glucina and wife Christina were following an additive-free, chemical-free, wholefood diet and lifestyle. They were totally committed to providing their children with the healthiest non-toxic diet and environment possible.
It’s no surprise that Matakana SuperFoods was amongst the very first companies in the world to recognise the potential benefit of super-nutrient wholefoods and integrate them into products that can be used as everyday options for health conscious families.
Today Matakana SuperFoods is moving ahead with the establishment of a large, eco-friendly, certified organic, solar powered warehouse and offices and a range of new innovations and crops to satisfy the need for unique ingredients.
