Funeral directors in Bay of Plenty
Tauranga, Mt Maunganui, Whakatāne, Rotorua. Strong Māori community presence — most directors here work alongside marae for tangihanga as the default support, with parallel capability for Pākehā or mixed-cultural services.
Bay of Plenty directors
19 firms on the FDANZ register
These are the Bay of Plenty funeral homes listed as members by the Funeral Directors Association of New Zealand, read on 2026-09-19. They are in the association’s order, not ranked, and nothing here is a recommendation — we have no relationship with any of them and have assessed none of them. Membership means a firm belongs to the association and is bound by its code; it is not a guarantee about price or about any individual funeral.
