Andrew Bell

Director of Kakariki Fine Foods ltd

Andrew has an active interest in the potential health benefits of hemp foods both from Hemp seed foods and Full Spectrum foods.

Coming from a farming background and farming until his late 30s, Andrew has an affinity for the land and understands the pressure of the Farming Industry. Andrew also spent many years in Retail Management with the liquor and Petrol Industries , before turning his hand to Security Work in Aviation Protection in Australia IC Karratha Airport and Heliport contracts .

Upon Returning to New Zealand in 2014, and after purchasing a motel lease In Rotorua, Andrew started developing health issues which sparked his curiosity – so Andrew set off on a journey to find out how hemp and cannabis fitted into human health. Since then, his interest in hemp has grown into his passion. Going forward, Andrew wants to keep learning about hemp and share his findings with others – not as an expert, but as a student.
