What if the way we buy food could transform the entire system?
A new report highlights that over $2.1 billion is spent every year on public food procurement in Australia—shaping what people eat, how food is produced, and who benefits.
Right now, large multinationals dominate public food contracts, while local, small, and First Nations producers are often left out and the quality and freshness of food remains a concern.
Thank you Regen Australia, Dheepa and everyone involved in bringing this important research and report to life, helping amplify the voice of social enterprises like ours and others working on the ground.
As a food collective wholesaler, we see this as a real opportunity to strengthen local supply chains, improve access to fresh food, and build a more fair and sustainable food system.
