RāKiwi Mānuka Honey Now Available in Cambodia

Over the past year, Aseanz has worked closely with Brendan Shivnan from New Zealand Natural Honey to introduce the RāKiwi brand to the Cambodian market. We are pleased to announce that RāKiwi Mānuka Honey is now available for purchase in 18 outlets across Phnom Penh as well as online through Nham24 and Smile Shop.

RāKiwi was established in 2018 by New Zealand Native Honey Products. Founded by Tairāwhiti-raised Brendan Shivnan, RāKiwi is a labour of love committed to quality, sustainability, and community. 

The company works closely with independent beekeepers, farmers, Māori-owned businesses, and community members across New Zealand to produce exceptional honey products while making a positive impact on both people and the planet.

Mānuka honey is prized globally for its natural anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties. At RāKiwi, honey is hand-harvested with care, ensuring minimal harm to bees and minimal impact on trees. All products are raw-processed to preserve heat-sensitive nutrients and bioactive compounds. 

In addition, RāKiwi donates 2% of its revenue to the Toha Network on New Zealand’s northern East Coast to support sustainability efforts, including planting native trees on Māori land.

The collaboration between Aseanz and Sothea Mam from MAS has made this high-quality honey accessible to Cambodian consumers, meeting the growing demand for premium, health-focused products. 

Cambodia’s rising middle class and increasing awareness of wellness trends provide a strong foundation for RāKiwi’s growth in the market. Beyond retail outlets, online platforms such as Nham24 and Smile Shop have extended the brand’s reach, making it easier for customers to experience the benefits of Mānuka Honey.

Looking ahead, Aseanz is focused on working with MAS to support the continued growth of RāKiwi in Cambodia. This includes plans to expand distribution into more locations and to implement initiatives to educate consumers about the unique qualities of Mānuka honey. 

As RāKiwi establishes its presence in Cambodia, Aseanz and its partners remain dedicated to delivering a product that reflects a commitment to sustainability, quality, and innovation. 

With a focus on fostering trust and building awareness, RāKiwi Mānuka Honey is well-positioned to thrive in this dynamic market, offering consumers a taste of New Zealand’s finest while contributing to a healthier and more sustainable future.
