Beehive Rental for Businesses

We’ve helped 30+ business’ boost biodiversity with bees, and we’d love you to join the movement.

What to expect

We provide the beehives, bees, and ongoing hive servicing - so your team can focus on buzzing with CSR engagement and hands-on learning.

Did you know beehives can contribute to your business’ Green Star Certification?

Green Star is New Zealand’s leading sustainability rating system for commercial buildings, where projects earn points across key categories to achieve a certified star rating - the higher the points, the greater the commercial value.

Why businesses are prioritising Green Star:

  • Higher asset value and stronger tenant demand

  • Access to green finance and investment opportunities

  • Lower operating costs over time

  • Stronger ESG positioning with stakeholders

  • Potential tax efficiencies linked to sustainable building performance

If you’re working toward certification, every initiative needs to contribute real, measurable impact - not just tick a box.

That’s where beehives come in.

How bees contribute to your Green Star points:

  • Ecology: Supports on-site biodiversity outcomes

  • Innovation: Contributes towards innovation credits when integrated into your sustainability strategy

  • Wellbeing: Enhances occupant connection to nature

  • Overall score: Strengthens your total points across multiple categories
