Winning the Green Premium
Webinar series
February to April 2023
Consumers are demanding ever-greater sustainability. That comes with a financial cost. How can producers earn more to cover these new costs?
In this webinar series, we explored how Kiwi brands are winning the ‘green premium’ by working with suppliers, communities, retailers and consumers to find greater value – and then re-invest that premium in sustainable production.
Plain speaking and practical, this series is for entrepreneurs, owners and executives of businesses specialising in sustainable production of food and fibre products. Each episode includes representatives from large and SME businesses plus an expert in the field.
