Leading experts from the food industry will share their tips on growing a good food business at the Good Food Forum on the 25th May at The Cloud in Auckland.
The one-day event, organised by the Sustainable Business Network, is designed to help participants grow a smart, high-performing food business.
"By 'good' food we mean considering where food comes from, how it's grown and made, and where it goes to once the consumer has finished with it, in addition to the bottom line of making a profit," says CEO of the Sustainable Business Network (SBN), Rachel Brown.
"The food industry is an important part of the New Zealand economy. There are global trends that businesses need to be aware of because New Zealand is so dependent on and connected to other countries for our food system," she says.
"We believe it's vital to ensure we foster the growth of 'good' food businesses, to meet the demands of consumers for products that are healthy and improve the wellbeing of people and the environment."
