For Kiwifruit Capital, the vision was clear: create the ultimate digital hub for the town of Te Puke, the “Kiwifruit Capital of the World.” The solution was a custom-designed portal that seamlessly blends a professional, tourism-focused aesthetic with the vibrant, welcoming feel of a small town. The design was meticulously crafted to reflect the local character, using high-quality photography and a warm color palette. The user interface was a key focus, built to be intuitive and engaging for both residents and visitors, with a strong emphasis on showcasing the best of what Te Puke has to offer.
The build is a masterclass in custom functionality, creating a truly feature-packed community resource. The cornerstone of the site is its powerful, custom-built business directory. This feature allows businesses to choose from multiple listing plans and manage their own profiles, complete with photo galleries, contact information, and social links. The build also includes a comprehensive events calendar with a custom submission form, ensuring that the community can easily stay up-to-date on all local happenings. By integrating these advanced functionalities, the Kiwifruit Capital website was transformed into a dynamic and essential platform, connecting the community and providing a powerful tool for local commerce and tourism.
