Nougro Farms is a highly respected seasonal labour recruitment company based in Vanuatu. Nougro is licensed for both the Australian SWP, and New Zealand RSE Seasonal Worker Programs.
Welcome to our website. I hear from farmers all the time how staffing is a problem. Do you have staff not turning up. Do they turn up in an unfit state. maybe you hire backpackers who disappears because the music festival down the road is on, or maybe you simply cannot expand because of lack of workers. Look no more – read this site because we have a solution for you.
My name is Dan and I am the Principal of Nougro Farms.
Workers recruited by Nougro Farms come from a country voted happiest country in the world – TWICE! They are naturally happy, enthusiastic workers who turn up to work on time, every day they are expected to work. Like that Sam from the small island of Gaua – The Garden Island (right).
Don’t take our word for it. The testimonial below is a typical response from Nougro AAEs
Our workers from Vanuatu provide a stable full season workforce and the backpackers give us some flexibility. This blend works well for us and we’ll stick with it into the future.
We’ve just finished our 2nd season with our Seasonal workers. After refresher inductions and training they were straight into it.
Our workers arrive fit and ready to work, with minimal sick days their reliability speaks for itself. The “guys” are happy to work with us to get the job done. They are always polite and will discuss any issues that arise. Our workers have indicated that they’ll be back for a 3rd season and we couldn’t be happier.

Our workers outperform backpackers. ‘Not hard,’ we hear you say but employers will tell you that an average Ni-Vanuatu worker will perform 20% better than a good backpacker. Add to that the reliability and you need Vanuatu workers from Nougro on your farm.
Why Team Nougro beats the rest?
- I am an Expat farmer (with tertiary horticulture degree) residing in Vanuatu. This means that I can communicate clearly in English and in a way that relates to farmers and farming contractors.
- Holding a NZ Passport it is easy for me to travel to Australia any time.
- Communication is easy – phone, email, WhatsApp , Facebook Messenger, Skype.
- Extensive experience in the RSE (6 years) and SWP (4 years) programs. With a solid relationship at the Government levels in the three countries,it is easy to troubleshoot and resolve any issues that arise at application time.
- There are only two licensees in the Pacific that are able to recruit legally for both the RSE and SWP Programs. Nougro is one of them.
- Our Experience in sending over 500 workers to NZ and Australia combined through 10 approved or registered employers means that we know what we are doing and can be trusted
- All workers selected based on what YOU, the AAE or RSE want, with advice given to help you regarding, ‘Vanuatu quirks.’
- We charge zero fees to workers. We repeat that – we charge zero fees to workers. Neither before or after.
- This for three reasons. The first is because the aim of the scheme is to maximize the returns for the worker who lives and supports their family in Vanuatu – a third world country. The second reason is because, the Australian and NZ Governments have the same thinking and therefore declare such activity is a breach of the agreements in place. Thirdly, Vanuatu Law specifically states it is against the law to charge a worker.
We don’t just do recruiting – We ARE Recruting
You need Nougro in your future recruiting plans.
