The Young Enterprise Scheme (YES) in Hawke’s Bay is designed to inspire the next generation of business leaders, disruptors and changemakers, helping to create a new generation of business-savvy New Zealanders. Senior secondary students take part in the programme to set up and run their own small enterprise, supported by teachers, schools, and a Regional Coordinator from Hawke’s Bay Chamber of Commerce.

A wide range of products were on offer at the market, including pet products, handmade jewellery, milkshakes, beauty products, fire starters, handmade candles and many more.

Services were also a popular choice for many teams wanting to support local artists, connect horticulture employers with staff, support for student drivers and educating students on the importance of understanding the political system.

All teams showed a deep understanding of enterprise, kaitiakitanga (guardianship and protection), sustainability and the positive impact their small business could have on the community.
