At Zespri, we are committed to helping people lead healthier and happier lives. That's why we are incredibly proud to partner with AIMS Games, an event that has a positive impact on our communities and helps improve the health and well-being of our young people. 

AIMS Games' focus on sports, physical activity, and outdoor recreation is a great way to teach children the importance of these core values — values that align with Zespri's identity and purpose of supporting people, communities, and the environment through the goodness of kiwifruit. 

We strongly believe that staying active and consuming the right amount of nutrients are essential for maintaining good health. And what better way to get those essential nutrients than from fruit, especially Zespri Kiwifruit!
