Greenshell New Zealand wins NZ Food and Beverage
Exporter of the Year
Coromandel MP Scott Simpson has
congratulated Greenshell New Zealand on being named New
Zealand Food and Beverage Exporter of the Year at the Export
NZ Awards.
The prestigious award recognised Greenshell New
Zealand’s excellence in building extraordinary and
sustainable export growth in the Food and Beverage
sector.
Judges said the company had shown the ability to
think differently with a variety of well thought out
strategies shaping their growth and future
potential.
“Greenshell farms its mussels at Wilson Bay
in the Coromandel. The success of the company in continually
breaking new ground in terms of exports of this quality
local product is great news for our part of the world,”
said Mr Simpson.
“There are some very exciting times
ahead for the aquaculture industry in the Coromandel. The
fact that our existing operators are enjoying such
tremendous success bodes very well for the
future.”
