The food processing industry is the largest manufacturing employer in Australia with more than 312,000 jobs. While progressive firms want to take part in the global food boom, the reality is that their businesses are struggling within a nexus of a high dollar and insufficient government attention to this sector. Steve Howard Secretary General The Global Foundation
