K.Williams Shearing Gisborne

Kevin Williams wasn’t very happy with his wife Donna when she entered the Westpac Business Excellence Awards.“He doesn’t like the limelight,” says Donna, his partner in the K.Williams Shearing partnership which ended up winning the Maori Business Excellence award.

Much to Kevin’s horror. “Kevin would rather put on his gumboots and go to the shed than get dressed up, go on stage and talk about our business,” says Donna. Luckily for Kevin, his human-dynamo wife is a brilliant front- woman who entertained the crowd at the awards night with a highly- amusing and informative presentation about their nine-year-old business.Donna says she was astonished they won the award.“I was so proud, I was on Cloud 9. Kevin, on the other hand, wanted to hide. “It was the first time we had stepped back and looked at our business from the outside. It was a lot of work but very worthwhile. “Mind you, we owe a lot to our accountants Debbie Blakeman and Clare Brooks who encouraged and supported us all the way.”Kevin was born and raised on the East Coast, and Donna was eight when her family moved from Waingake to Tolaga Bay.
