Toi-EDA, the Eastern Bay of Plenty Regional Economic Development Trust, has as its base philosophy the whakatauaki: Tini o Toi – kia tipu, kia puawai  - To create, grow and blossom the myriads of Toi.

With this vision in mind, Toi-EDA works to deliver an Economic Development Strategy that generates sustainable employment across the Eastern Bay of Plenty through sector based growth.

Goals are focussed on cultivating and supporting initiatives that promote and improve the economic, environmental, cultural and social well being of the Eastern Bay community.  These goals and projects link through to represent the Eastern Bay in wider economic development and planning strategies and initiatives that are consistent with the Regional Growth Strategy.

Toi-EDA is supported by the Whakatāne, Ōpōtiki and Kawerau District Councils and the Bay of Plenty Regional Council which gives a collective and sound base to work from.
