In this special series of The SME Stream Podcast, Wilhelmina O’Keeffe steps inside some of Aotearoa’s most loved small and medium businesses - exploring their culture, their stories, and how coffee helps bring people and ideas together.
In this episode, Wilhelmina catches up with Portia Lawrence and Gavin Hunt to chat how coffee plays an important role in Signature Homes’ culture, creating informal moments for people to connect, share ideas, and strengthen relationships across the business. These everyday interactions reflect the company’s family-focused, people-first approach, where collaboration, continuous improvement, and a sense of belonging are central to how they work.
