Does anyone work at Fonterra?

Rod Neighbourly Lead from Hamilton East

Heya.... Am just wondering if any of you work or knows someone who works at Fonterra (Te Rapa) ?
I got a cousin and his family who live down in Ashburton and they are very keen to move to Hamilton. He has over 11 years experience as Machine Operator and Team Leader, looking after 3 packouts and a robot to stack boxes. Basically if you eat KFC, or buy any of those frozen veggies from the supermarket, all of those come from Talleys. TIP OF THE DAY, it doesn't matter the brand, get the cheapest.. hehe.. They all come from the same machine, same mixer, same everything. I used to be a machine operator there too (many years ago)... ;)
So.... am just trying to meet some worker from Fonterra so I can try to get my cousin in contact with and perhaps get a secure/safe job.

Cheers. Rod

Poll: Do you think an age check is required for these drinks?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Stores are checking IDs for fancy soft drinks and not everyone is happy about it.⁠
⁠
One shopper, who asked not to be named, bought some zero alcohol branded drinks at his local supermarket and was asked to “step around into the thoroughfare so a supervisor could see me and make sure I was over 18. I couldn't believe it."⁠
