DryNZ Ltd has been operating for five years as
a premium producer and supplier of dehydrated New Zealand fruit and vegetable
pieces, powders and slices. The company’s vision is to be a global provider of
sustainable, environmentally responsible, and nutritious New Zealand dried food
products.
It is backed by a committed group of owners, management and team members,
dedicated to creating a New Zealand business with an excellent reputation for
delivering quality products and services.
Over the past five years the company has tripled the size of its Waiuku-based
factory to 600 square metres, creating a fully functional world-class production
facility capable of operating 24/7.
There are also benefits for New Zealand’s crop growers. DryNZ makes full use of
any non-export sized produce, increasing both yield and profit margins for
suppliers, and reducing natural wastage.
Demand for dried product
With the impacts of Covid-19 receding, there will be noticeable increase in new
opportunities for DryNZ.
New Zealand based food producers - hampered by pandemic induced supply chain
issues, transportation cost and logistical uncertainty - will be looking for
companies like DryNZ to provide home-sourced product for an increasingly
discerning consumer base seeking safe, high quality nutritional products.
DryNZ has also grown its reputation as a trusted provider of unique services to
a variety of New Zealand-based industries, who are seeking their expertise
across the growing sustainable food waste, pharmaceutical and skin-care
sectors.
This has become one of DryNZ’s biggest growth areas, and it now dries bread and
spent brewery grain for companies focusing on reducing food waste.
Near-expired supermarket bread and spent brewery grain is delivered to DryNZ
where it is de-bagged, de-tagged, sliced and dried. The dried bread is then
added to the brewers’ vats with other ingredients to make beer. The remnants
from this process are spent grain which DryNZ then dries and mills to make
flour.
Trials with the re-used bread/spent grain flour are now taking place - via one
of New Zealand’s largest bakeries and burger stores - with an early September
launch of a new burger bun being sold in supermarkets.
Partnering for success
Further opportunities have arisen in a range of partnerships.
A New Zealand owned nutritional health food company, which has developed a new
beverage formulation using DryNZ’s New Zealand-sourced ingredients, such as
kale, spinach, blackcurrant and apple.
A New Zealand baker will be developing a new loaf using five different
vegetables. This is expected to be launched to the consumer market in September
2023. Trials using Dry NZ ingredients will begin in September 2022.
And New Zealand’s second-largest pharmaceutical company has begun producing
mushroom powder, produced by DryNZ for children’s health capsules for export to
China. That company is making two million capsules, and will see twenty 40 foot
containers head off our shores bound for China in mid-August.
International collaboration
Over the past 18 months DryNZ has been worked successfully with Viberi Organics sending blackcurrants to
Japan; Chantal Organics and their new muesli; Figs Direct
and their dried figs; and akin care company in the development of their new
range made using dried Manuka leaves.
DryNZ’s agility, expertise and reputation as a trusted provider of first-class
product has enabled its growth on an unprecedented scale. Over the past 18
months it has taken full advantage of its ability to realise efficiency gains
undergoing an extensive programme of upskilling across our labour force.
It has attained BioGro NZ Organic status through Ministry of Primary Industries RMP/HACCP status and Halal certifications. And has
become an approved and accredited supplier to Nestle World’s Responsible Sourcing Programme,Goodman Fielder and Unipharm.
And DryNZ’s online store has grown its customer base to
become the chosen source of products for use as trial ingredients by companies
such as Harraways and Tom & Luke’s snack range.
Expert capabilities and
market knowledge
In the five years since its inception DryNZ has gained significant knowledge,

The company’s “pure NZ” brand, it packaging, website and stock - including pure NZ drinking fruit sachets, pure NZ dried fruit and vegetable pieces and powders herbs and spices - together with its adaptable business fortitude is a major part of its key to success.
DryNZ is poised to enter an exciting new era. It has an opportunity to revitalise its operating model and, in this respect, is poised to begin a new journey, steadfastly focused on a bright and successful future.
Capital raise and application of funds
Successful adaptation in this fast-moving environment requires increased capacity and capability to ensure DryNZ continues to provide the highly valued service its customers are seeking.
Further investment is required to meet these demands in terms of both quantity and quality - and will enable the company to strengthen its position as a trusted supplier of New Zealand’s high quality dried product. According the company is seeking $500,000 up to $1,000,000 through the issue of new ordinary shares in the company.
