Meet the team
Anatoly Oleinikov
Founder. Project Manager
After working with over 100 kitchen companies across New Zealand, I saw the good, the bad, and everything in between. With a background as a kitchen machinery setup expert, I knew I could do better — so I started Kiwi Craft Kitchens. I am on a mission to make our company the first name Kiwis think of when it comes to mid and high-end kitchens in New Zealand
