| 10/19/21 | ![]() A Kiwi Original - Christchurch Infrastructure | As New Zealand grows, so too must its infrastructure. In this episode, we look at how Fulton Hogan is looking to grow the numbers of people getting into the industry, and how Spunlite Poles are using innovative manufacturing processes and fantastic Kiwi support to stay competitive with overseas imports. One of the biggest challenges that New Zealand faces is getting enough people into the infrastructure sector to keep up with our growing country. Fulton Hogan and its partners have decided to tackle this hurdle head-on. They've taken Kiwis that are looking for jobs and put them into the newly established Infrastructure Skills Centre. Employed from day 1, these recruits are taught a wide range of infrastructure skills, from drain laying to road building, with a guaranteed job at the end of it. This fantastic programme is doing good for all New Zealanders and we can't wait to see it grow. Spunlite Poles don't just make poles, they make solutions. When someone needs a streetlight or a 100+ meter radio mast, Spunlite are the guys you should call. With imports coming into the market, Spunlite has looked to innovation and great service to stay competitive, because there are not many companies that still support products they made 40 years ago.

| 3/30/21 | ![]() Glen Herud - Happy Cow Milk | I have a candid chat with Glen Herud who put it all on the line for Happy Cow Milk.In this episode you'll learn:- the business model to bring milk distribution back to the farm gate and increase margins and control for the farmer.- the miniaturisation technology that will eliminate the need for farmers to truck milk to a processor by creating a 'milk factory in a box'.- Glen's business journey to date and his refreshing honesty about it.Glen Herud is a visionary when it comes to the future of milk supply globally. His milk 'factory in a box' innovation is the latest in the trend towards dispersion of technology and away from centralised solutions. In the case of milk, Glen is solving the problem of 'how do we make it so farmers around the world can sell to their local customers?' Distribution, bottling, pasteurisation, loading and unloading and washing everything are necessary yet expensive activities in milk production. In the 20th century this was solved with centralised model. In the 21st century, Glen believes are distributed solution closer to the farm gate will prevail. I love how open Glen is about his mission, the failures along the way and the exciting point that Glen’s gotten the business too now. This is a public episode.

| 3/23/21 | ![]() Gerwyn Jones - Pelgar International | What do you spray on a natural crop to keep the pests away? That has been a local source of frustration in New Zealand for hort and pest control…because many are toxic.New Zealand and Australia are big markets for Pelgar and food producers and growers are demanding less toxic or less harmful products according to Pelgar's Asia Pac Manager Gerwyn Jones. "We’ve seen a change with people looking for NZ Grown and NZ Made products and we thought, ‘why not’ there’s a demand for it.” “With Covid, we’ve got issues with supply chains, I think everyone has, trying to get products into the country. Shipping products from the UK, Australia, Singapore and New Zealand is taking longer.” “I thought why not produce a locally grown product in Hawke’s Bay with natural pyrethrum for the pest control and horticulture industry.”Natural pyrethrum is the answer, yet until two years ago, a New Zealand Grown source wasn't available. Now it is, thanks to Greg Duncan at Pyrethrum New Zealand in Hawke's Bay, and Pelgar is meeting the demand with NZ Grown pyrethrum that isn't at risk from costly shipping via international and variable supply chains.Horticulture and pest control now have a locally grown pyrethrum sources thanks to Pelgar. New Zealand Grown chrysanthemum has some magical properties that Gerwyn Jones from PelGar International spotted could make it an ideal natural alternative to some of the existing in-market options.Ryan Jennings speaks with Asia Pacific Business Manager Gerwyn Jones about the company and the possibilities this new insecticide will bring for New Zealand horticulture and agriculture sectors.
