Grains & Pulses Forum – June 2021

June 18th, 2021

With the 2020 Forum being cancelled due to Covid, the 2021 was attended by close to 100 merchants, suppliers, growers, grain end users and other industry professionals.

Developed and hosted the NZGSTA, Grains & Pulses Chair Ed Luisetti said he was “pleased with the turn out as it was an important annual fixture bringing industry colleagues together to discuss and collaborate around key challenges and opportunities in the sector”.

The forum was addressed by eight expert speakers on the day, followed by a BBQ lunch thank you to sponsor Mainfreight Air & Ocean and Owens Transport.

Thank you to everyone who attended to make the day a success and to sponsors.
