Blake Holgate: Rabobank Sustainable Business Development Head on the results of the food waste report
The Mike Hosking Breakfast - A podcast by Newstalk ZB
New Zealand's food waste remains high despite a cost-of-living crisis. A Rabobank-KiwiHarvest survey estimates that $3.2 billion of food goes in the bin annually. Households waste 12.2% of groceries yearly, a slight decrease from last year's 13.4%. Sustainable Business Development Head, Blake Holgate, told Mike Hosking that as food becomes more expensive, the value of what is thrown out increases. He said that despite the reduction in waste, in terms of total value food waste has actually increased. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
