Contract Bottling & Canning for Small Beverage Brands in NZ

Kia ora! We’re Marleen and Pete, founders of Pete’s Natural here in sunny Motueka. We specialise in contract bottling and canning.

More than ten years ago, we came to New Zealand for a better lifestyle and ended up building a soda brand from scratch. We did everything ourselves, from squeezing fruit, blending, bottling to labelling, the lot.

As a result, we understand the challenges of starting small and growing step by step.

Why choose Pete’s for contract bottling NZ?

We know how hard it can be to find a bottling or canning partner who gets small-batch needs. That’s why we’ve opened our solar-powered factory to support other small and growing beverage brands.

  • Low MOQs starting from 1,500 litres

  • Flexible production runs to keep cashflow healthy

  • High quality results so your drinks taste top-notch

  • South Island location, which helps cut freight costs and carbon miles

  • Small NPD runs also available.

Most importantly, we’ve been in your shoes, so we know what support matters most.

What we offer

  • Recipe blending
  • Carbonating
  • Filling (glass bottles or cans)
  • Capping
  • Pasteurising
  • Labelling
  • Boxing & packing
  • 3PL (third-party logistics) We can even ship for you!

We run on solar power and we’re big on sustainability,  Because of this, if you care about the planet as much as your product, you’ll feel right at home with us.

We believe small producers deserve proper support, without huge minimums or eye-watering upfront costs. That’s the essence of our mission in offering contract bottling & canning assistance to other beverage brands in NZ.

When we need extra capacity, Pete’s Natural is our go-to. Quick turnaround, small run sizes, and local. With freight costs rising, having a South Island producer helps reduce carbon miles and suits smaller companies or top-ups perfectly.
