In this episode, Food & Drink Business editor Kim Berry is joined by Maria Christina, National Manager of Manufacturing & Wholesale Trade, Commonwealth Bank and the CEO of That’s Amore Cheese, Marco Alghisi, to discuss the current state of Australia’s food and beverage manufacturing industry.
We hinge the discussion off CommBank’s latest Food & Beverage Manufacturing Insights Report, with Maria providing insights into manufacturers’ plans for productivity investments, improved efficiencies, and how they are navigating higher energy prices, inflation, and the cost-of-living crisis.
Marco provides a first-hand lens on the current market as well as sharing his experiences working in leadership roles around the world.
The conversation turns to sustainability and what companies are doing to meet consumer expectations and regulations.
