After years of hard work and investment, a $13.6 million industrial hub for just outside Gore has been announced. It will be a 50-50 partnership between Hokonui Rūnanga and Robertson Investments and funded through a loan from the Regional Infrastructure Fund. At last week’s announcement are (from left) Hokonui Rūnanga manager Terry Nicholas, Gore district deputy mayor Joe Stringer, Robertson Investments owner Shona Robertson, Associate Minister for Regional Development Mark Patterson and kaumātua Michael Skerrett.
