Australian food manufacturing plays an important role in our economy, regional communities and food supply chain. At Kagome Australia, we are proud to be part of that industry and remain committed to growing, manufacturing and investing in Australia.
Like manufacturers across the country, our industry continues to operate in an increasingly complex environment. Rising costs across energy, water, labour and other essential inputs are placing pressure on the competitiveness of Australian manufacturing and reinforcing the importance of creating the right conditions for local industry to thrive.
At Kagome Australia, we believe these are important conversations to have with those who have the power to make a difference.
We will continue to advocate for policies and conditions that support a strong, competitive and sustainable manufacturing sector, one that encourages local investment, supports regional communities and strengthens Australia’s food supply chain.
For Kagome Australia, this advocacy reflects our commitment to the industry and our belief in its future.
With our agricultural operations and manufacturing facility based in the Echuca region, we are proud to grow and manufacture locally and to work alongside our growers, customers, employees, communities and industry partners.
As our CEO Brad Free says:
“Our roots are firmly planted in Australia. We are proud to grow and manufacture here, and we remain committed to investing in our people, supporting our customers and contributing to a strong future for Australian food manufacturing.”
We are proud of what we have built in Australia and remain focused on strengthening it for the future.
