TORO is an ancient East Coast Māori term for the scouting party that goes ahead of the war party and forges a new path forward.
At the heart of our mission, we're all about simplifying the complex world of technology for your business. Our expertise is twofold: First, we specialise in transforming your digital presence to drive real results. Second, we craft bespoke software solutions designed to streamline operations, enhance efficiency, and fuel your growth.
TORO, inspired by East Coast Māori heritage, symbolises a scouting party, blending the spirit of exploration with the warmth of welcome, much like the adventurous voyages of Māori and Polynesian waka (canoes). This name embodies our innovative drive and bold approach in creating solutions that pioneer new paths and foster collaboration, mirroring our dedication to navigating the unexplored with our customers.
TORO is proudly based out of Tūranganui-a-Kiwa (Gisborne), situated on the picturesque East Coast of New Zealand's North Island. Our core mission is to open doors for local Māori and regional tech aspirants, enabling them to engage with and excel in technology opportunities locally and overseas.
Whether you need to enhance customer interactions with cutting-edge platforms, or revolutionise your processes with bespoke software or identify the perfect third-party tools, Toro Technology is your trusted partner. From website development and ecommerce solutions to integrated business and financial reporting systems, we help you navigate the digital landscape and elevate your operations to new heights.
