We rate all our Manuka honey using the UMF trademark which was first registered as a trademark in 1998. The purpose of it being registered was to control its use and enforce standards.
In July 2014, MPI (Ministry of Primary Industries) issued a new guideline aimed at ensuring that the honey producers selling manuka honey are true to label and not misleading to customers.
The price of Manuka Honey commands much higher prices due to its unique properties. So, more and more people are jumping on the Manuka Honey train, trying to make a quick buck by selling other types of honey as Manuka Honey.
