Our Story
Zealex is a specialist in the honey industry. From honey extraction and refinement to bulk blending, storage and packing. We have developed a range of processes to extract and formulate the highest quality products from the beehive. Zealex and their partners source honey from a substantial part of the North and South Islands of New Zealand and utilise it in a wide range of products and formats for their key clients.
Neil has been involved with food processing and exporting of New Zealand fine food products for over 30 years. He has joined with son Ollie to form Zealex Ltd for handling and exporting Manuka honey and other native New Zealand honey. Ollie is an expert beekeeper who is passionate about bees, ensuring that hive health and production are at the highest standard. Zealex also works with an extended family of avid beekeepers NZ wide to ensure we can supply the type of honey their client's demand.
