How we started

Back in the 80`s we started to make front-end loader attachments & also provided engineering services to other manufacturing companies in the area.

Loaders back then were a relatively new thing & not widespread like they are today. Very soon he got a name for making top quality loader attachments & doing top quality work, this meant he became so busy he had to stop farming & start manufacturing full time. The company took its name from the farm it was originally started on (Rata Park) & became known as Rata Industries to reflect the range of services it offered across the agricultural & industrial spectrum.

What we do today

Fast forward 30 odd years through the 90`s, 2000`s up to today. Now we are located in the agricultural heartland of Canterbury & have gone on to become New Zealand`s leading brand of locally manufactured Tractor & Telehandler attachments. Over those years we also acquired a range of Cultivation & Aeration Equipment & the Vogal brand of fertiliser spreaders, of which we produce & distribute throughout a nationwide network of dealers.

Changes over the years have seen us develop & acquire our own vast range of agricultural equipment, this specific focus in the agricultural equipment sector has lead to our products become known as `Rata Equipment` today.
