At Read Pacific we believe that teaching is one of the most important jobs in the world.
We believe education has the power to transform lives, strengthen communities and create opportunities for future generations. For more than 32 years, we have been helping schools, educational institutions, governments and aid organisations access the resources they need to support quality learning throughout the Pacific and New Zealand.
Education has been at the heart of our family for three generations. This long-standing connection gives us a deep understanding of the challenges and opportunities facing schools across the region, as well as a genuine passion for helping students and teachers succeed.
From our Auckland warehouse, we stock more than 20,000 product lines, supplying a comprehensive range of educational resources including:
- Books and reading materials
- Mathematics and science equipment
- Art and craft supplies
- Stationery and classroom essentials
- Classroom furniture
- Musical instruments and resources
- Library resources
- Sports equipment
In addition to supplying educational resources, we specialise in publishing and print-on-demand services in a wide range of Pacific Island languages. Working closely with Ministries of Education, aid agencies and educational partners, we help develop resources that support local language learning while often incorporating accompanying English translations.
To better serve our Pacific customers, we expanded our presence in 2017 with the opening of our office in Port Vila, Vanuatu. This enables us to provide more responsive support and strengthen our relationships throughout the region.

Supporting Education Across the Pacific
One of our greatest passions is promoting literacy and supporting reading programmes developed specifically for Pacific primary schools. Because we understand Pacific curricula, local learning environments and the unique needs of island communities, schools throughout the Pacific rely on us not only as a supplier but as a trusted source of advice and expertise.
Over the years, we have successfully partnered with numerous major aid-funded education projects, working alongside governments, international agencies and development organisations. Our experience in procurement, resource development, logistics and project delivery allows us to support educational initiatives of all sizes throughout the Pacific region.
Whether you are planning a school resource programme, a literacy initiative or a large-scale education project, we would welcome the opportunity to discuss how Read Pacific can help.
