Now in its 62nd year, the 2024 Awards recognised businesses across 13 national categories and five NSW categories. The Awards are delivered in partnership between the NSW government and the Export Council of Australia.

According to TNA, the ropac 5 is the world’s fastest case-packing system for flexible bags capable of packing up to 200 bags per minute.

Using TNA’s own patented semi-rotary technology, the tna ropac 5 case packer is designed to pack small-to-medium, pillow style snack bags.

Most bag widths and lengths are handled with ease for packing various applications such as snacks, confectionery, pasta and cereal.

“We’re extremely proud to be an ambassador of Australian innovative technology, to help our global customers succeed responsibly in a changing world,” the company said.

“Thank you, Export Council of Australia, for this honour, and for your continued support in recognising Australian excellence.”

The theme for the 2024 Awards was centred on NSW’s dynamic export partnership with the Association of South-east Asian Nations (ASEAN).

The Awards program has a goal of not only highlighting the significance of these collaborations, but also to promote cooperation and shine a light on the numerous possibilities that await NSW firms in the thriving ASEAN market.

Food & Drink Business

The team that shook up Australia’s cracker market segment is back, this time with the snack category in its sights. After selling Gourmet Food Holdings and brands including OB Finest and Olina’s Bakehouse to Mondēlez International in early 2021, the seasoned FMCG operators have launched SnackHQ and its first brand, ReFil.

Victorian food manufacturer and distributor, Katoomba Global Foods (KG Foods), has acquired Paris Creek Farms (PCF) from Maggie Beer Holdings (MBH), three years after the company first announced it would offload its dairy assets.

The latest research from IWSR has shown that overall growth is slowing in Asia Pacific’s beverage alcohol scene. A market that has previously been strongly driven by Australia is undergoing significant change as alcohol consumption declines, with emerging regions taking the lead.
