Being part of the Taupō business community is something I genuinely value. Taupō has a unique mix of ambition and authenticity.

People here want to grow, but they also care deeply about relationships, community, and balance. That’s exactly why I moved back after a decade away and why MBP Advisors + Accountants is proud to call Taupō home.

At MBP, we’re more than just accountants. We work alongside local business owners as advisors, problem-solvers, and sounding boards. We help them make confident decisions, plan for the future, and ultimately build businesses that support the life they want to live.

From start-ups and tradies to established companies across the wider region, we’re passionate about translating the numbers into clear, practical advice that actually makes a difference.

What makes MBP special is our team. They’re smart, driven, and genuinely care about our clients. Every day I see them go the extra mile. Whether that’s explaining something in plain English, spotting an opportunity a client hadn’t considered, or simply being there when someone needs reassurance. That’s what makes turning up to work each day rewarding.

Outside of the numbers, we love being involved locally and supporting other Taupō businesses and community organisations wherever we can.

There’s a strong sense of “we’re in this together” here, and that’s something special that we should never take for granted.

Looking ahead, we’re excited about continuing to grow our business locally, sharing more practical insights with local business owners, and helping Taupō thrive, now and into the future.

Kim Manunui

Hi, I’m Kim and I work with a great team to help individuals, as well as small and not so small businesses get their message, product and services to the world using digital media and creating wonderful websites that don’t cost the earth.

I was born in Canada, and grew up around Vancouver and the mountains of British Columbia. My love of pristine environments led me to New Zealand and eventually to the mountains, lakes and rivers of the central North Island which is home. My family’s heritage is here, and it’s from here that Korio traverses the planet.

The digital world is never static and neither are we.

And I say ‘we’ because I work with an awesome group of talented people who I gather together as required to complete a project. Whatever your business, not-for-profit or individual needs are we gather the best team to get the job done.

Collaboratively we are creative, share sustainable values and work hard for great outcomes because that’s the buzz of satisfaction that drives us.

If you have an audience and market to reach, we can make that happen. Creative design, words that work and smart behind the scenes stuff that cuts through the online noise. We’ll design your website and then build it. We’ll manage the content as well as all your hosting needs. We can handle your online advertising so you get noticed,
and we’ll manage your social media presence so you get the clicks, likes and engagement to grow your business. All within the budget you set, because none of this needs to cost the earth. And the job doesn’t stop when your website goes live. We are your virtual business partner.
