Tasti Products
How two Kiwi leaders work together to produce exceptional chocolate products.

A staple of New Zealand pantries
Tasti has been a Kiwi success story since 1932. They manufacture a range of products from snack bars and logs to muffin bakes and protein balls. Products are manufactured for their own well-respected brand, as well co-manufactured for private label and other brands. Tasti are recognized for their state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities, high levels of quality and flexible production capabilities.
Based in Auckland, Tasti currently employ 270 people, and their products are distributed throughout New Zealand, Australia, and the US.
How PTL became Tasti's go-to supplier
Tasti’s manufacturing facility now features a wide range of PTL equipment, including enrobers, cooling tunnels, ultrasonic guillotines, and various tanks and decorating equipment. PTL are one of Tasti’s go-to suppliers. “They’re definitely at the top of my inquiry list when I’m considering new equipment,” Robin says.
“The hygienic design of their equipment is superior to any of their larger competitors, and everything they produce is designed with quality in mind.”
When it comes to dealing with complex challenges and support issues, Robin’s opinion is unequivocal. “They’re great – they’re excellent, actually,” he enthuses. “They’re always helpful and responsive, and very knowledgeable.”

World-class equipment manufacturers
Robin has no hesitation in recommending PTL to other food manufacturing businesses, locally and overseas. He notes that PTL is competing successfully in the global market, despite it being a very tough, competitive environment.
Their ability to thrive on the world’s stage instills confidence. “I would definitely recommend other businesses give PTL the opportunity of offering a solution,” he says.
“They shouldn’t be put off by the fact that they’re down here at the bottom of the world, because they’re more than capable of meeting that geographic challenge, and they’ll be pleasantly surprised by the outcome.”
