ABOUT US
Ekko Solutions is a New Zealand company, based on the beautiful Hibiscus Coast in Auckland, New Zealand. Owner, Chantal, her husband Gary and their 4 children moved here from South Africa, 13 Years ago. Looking for a better quality of life for their young family, they were attracted to New Zealand’s CLEAN GREEN image as they have always been environmental enthusiasts. To contribute to this image and play their part in the environment, Chantal’s long-term vision is to help entrench that CLEAN GREEN, image by becoming a supplier of choice for New Zealand companies wishing to align themselves with a plastic free Aotearoa .
