The Oyster ecosystem, comprising B Corp certified entities Oyster Workshop Ltd. and Oyster & Moon Ltd., represents an integrated model for Indigenous-led regenerative economics. Oyster Workshop serves as the strategic, Pacific wāhine-owned core, operating a systems change consulting practice dedicated to advancing equity and self-determination for Māori and Pacific communities. Through its unique relational methodology, it provides wrap-around mentorship and supports the commercial capability of a growing collective of indigenous businesses. Its subsidiary, Oyster & Moon, is the ecosystem's tangible commercial pathway. This bespoke digital platform is rooted in whakapapa (provenance), creating an ethical gateway to the creativity of Te Moana Nui-a-Kiwa. More than a marketplace, it connects conscious shoppers to the stories, heritage, and authentic experiences behind each product, operating on a profit-for-purpose model. The dual B Corp certification provides independent, robust validation for this entire structure. It verifies that from foundational systems change to mindful commerce, the ecosystem is designed as a unified force for intergenerational good, community prosperity, and cultural integrity.
