COMPANY INFORMATION
An Australian household name, with a global turnover of $42 billion, KRAFT is synonymous with hugely popular brands such as; Kraft Singles, Cheestiks, Kraft Peanut Butter, Toblerone, Philadelphia, Ritz and the iconic Vegemite.
Yet the business is much more than popular brands. Its Vegemite Port Melbourne Plant is an exemplar of operational excellence and sustainable practices. In 2008 it produced its 1 billionth jar of Vegemite yet what this achievement fails to illustrate is the cultural transformation and process improvements, which led to this landmark event. Commencing in 2002 with a realisation of Vegemite’s importance to the company and the need to ensure its longevity into the future, an in-depth and innovative re-development of the Vegemite process began. To date notable successes include reducing; waste water by 60%; energy consumption by 50%; achieving environmental savings of $1 million and production savings of $4 million and their sustainably journey continues.
