Kāpiti Food Fair is a recipient of the Kāpiti Major Events Fund and is supported by numerous local businesses in-kind and reduced cost of services.

The Fair is a commercial event however we have a social agenda too. The Fair contracts services from Kāpiti Rotary Charitable Trust, No 49 Squadron Air Cadets, Paraparaumu College, and Work Ready Kāpiti to help run key logistics like pack-in/out, visitor parking and gate entry, the ATM and waste minimisation. In 2024 we will work towards diverting 95% of waste from landfill.
