ARE YOU CONSIDERING A CAREER IN THE FOOD INDUSTRY?

The University of Otago, in association with NZIFST, interviewed some recent (and not so recent) graduates from within the New Zealand Food Industry and got them to talk about their journeys.

                                                                                       Check out all of the interviews out here. 


We appreciate the support of our Conference 2023 Principal Partner and Major Partner





The NZIFST Exec, Board and other members are working hard on the NZIFST Strategy House.

We presented our journey so far at conference in Ōtepoti Dunedin recently.  If you would like to see the slide deck, you can find it here.  We are still looking for people to help out in the workstreams, so if you see something you would like to help out with, please click here and scan the QR code.


Food Waste Research with the University of Otago


Have you seen this fantastic clip of what NZIFST Fellow Miranda Mirosa and her team in the Food Science Department at the University of Otago are up to the battle with Food Waste.

This video was commissioned as part of the ‘Shared Horizons’ project sharedhorizons.fgc.org.nz, which "delves into crucial topics, showcases innovative thinking, and highlights success stories from across the food and beverage sector". This initiative is presented by the NZ Food and Grocery Council in partnership with ASN Media.
