our HISTORY

October 2021, Akra Civil started as a humble two man crew, working out of the back of a car doing small retaining walls and concrete works. Akra Civil did not grow until February 2022 when it secured its first 2 year working contract with a major tier one contractor. Fast forward to today it now employs 12 full-time staff of predominantly Māori decent and working hard to create strong relationships within the community.

Akra Civil is a horizontal construction company servicing the North Island. Akra Civil currently covers two key sectors within horizontal construction; Civil and Water. We are members of Civil Contractors New Zealand’s East Coast branch, Members of Amotai; Māori & Pasific procurement, and have achieved Site Wise Gold for 2023/24 for our Health & Safety systems while currently working toward Totika. Akra Civil is proudly Māori owned and prides itself on constantly working to preserve Māori values while adapting them to modern society.
