He uri nō te whenua, he ngākau ki Te Ao Māori, he whānau e whai ana i tētahi moemoeā.

We are Tipene, Marree, and our pēpi, Te Aue. A small whānau based in Ngāruawāhia, building something creative, meaningful, and proudly Māori.

Ka ū ki means to land, to arrive, to reach a destination. For us, it speaks to identity - where we stand, where we come from, and where our footsteps lead. Every sticker we create carries that same wairua. A simple way for our people to show pride in their iwi, their rohe, their waka, their whakapapa.

What started as a small idea at home quickly became our passion. We dreamed of seeing Māori identity carried everywhere we go - on cars, on bottles, on laptops, on windows - our people repping who they are with mana.

And that dream became clear:
To see Ka ū ki stickers everywhere we travel across Aotearoa.

Not just a business - but a movement of visibility, pride, and belonging.

With every iwi decal, every waka, every town, every country version of “Ka ū ki”, we want our people to feel connected, represented, and seen.

We’re learning as we grow, raising our baby while building a kaupapa that represents us as a whānau - creative, proud, and always dreaming bigger.

From our home to yours - thank you for supporting a whānau-owned Māori business.

Together, we’ll see Ka ū ki everywhere.
