Shaban: Is the new owner of Home of Poi. He is dedicated to providing great service and great products. His extensive knowledge has expanded our company into several countries to take advantage of cheaper shipping prices. He had previously been working with us in product design, sourcing, and manufacturing since 2016, and now he has the keys to drive Home of Poi into the future.
Malcolm: You all obviously know Malcolm as the founder of HoP which kicked off in October 1998. During Covid the high freight costs and poor deliverability of parcels, it was decided to put Home of Poi into hibernation. Malcolm then decided the company had to leave New Zealand, which is too far from our customers, to remain competitive, and he also felt that someone much younger was needed moving forward. Malcolm's role is now to support Shaban and his team.
