Sharat Limited.

Sharat Limited realised the best way to help our local community was to create jobs for people within the community. We therefore set an ambitious 5 year strategic plan which involved 500 jobs in 5 years. We are on our way to achieving this goal as over the past 18 months we have helped 66 people into either employment or future study. (see Strategic Plan).

In July 2011 we formed Sharat Limited we are a community minded company. The primary focus of Sharat Limited (which includes Grassroots lawn mowing and gardening services) is community development through economic development providing training and jobs for people who live within the Tamaki area (this includes Glen Innes and Panmure).
