Forging ahead
EVERY single customer, supplier, employee, company and product has a story.
I am obsessed with them. It helps to be quite nosey, but the thing I get the greatest kick out of is finding those stories and then sharing them with others.
I urge you to look to your working world and seek out those stories that add meaning to your brand, your sense of purpose and indeed your bottom line. Then call me!
This issue we look at what’s happening in the world of bakery and desserts. The well known Byron Bay Cookie Company took the time to stay true to is luxe reputation while developing a vegan biscuit laden with nuts and maple syrup.
Arnott’s R&D director for Treating, David Landers, has possibly the best job in the world working out what we want from a sweet treat.
In our plant design and fitout feature, RMR Process is working on a project that has the potential to transform the poultry industry. No small task.
Oakey Beef Exports is the only company in Australia using a
covered high-rate anaerobic lagoon
plant to turn waste into energy and Made Group shows us its new beverage facility.
Finally, this issue features our annual
industry directory. Our comprehensive listings
of ingredients suppliers and equipment manufacturers will provide all the information you need.
Onward.
