Masport NZ Ltd started as a family owned manufacturing company in 1910 in Auckland, New Zealand.  Since then the Masport brand has become a symbol for good quality, reliable outdoor equipment for generations of New Zealanders.

Masport introduced an iron foundry in 1911 and started manufacturing vacuum pumps and stationary engines for a range of agricultural equipment.  After establishing a solid base in the farming industry, Masport started to diversify, producing its first hand mowers in 1930 and New Zealand’s first petrol-powered lawnmower in 1938. 

Masport made munitions for the army during World War 2.  Post-war the company refocused on its core business, introducing further farm machinery such as ride-on tractors.  With a growing reputation for engineering excellence, the company expanded offshore – with an increasing range of agricultural, horticultural and lawn care products. 


Today Masport delivers a range of quality lawn and garden products.  The business also markets a more affordable range of products under the Morrison brand www.4morrison.com.  The company continues to enjoy a growing global reputation for providing quality products, exporting to over 30 countries worldwide.

Masport’s mission is to be a leading manufacturer and distributor of consumer outdoor power equipment and patio lifestyle products in our chosen markets worldwide.
