Episode 101 of The Icehouse Podcast, hosted by Bryar Stewart, is with Diane Stanbra, Business Owner of Picnic Box and now Rescued. Rescued is on a mission to lead New Zealand to a zero-food-waste-to-landfill-future. They partner with growers, manufacturers, retailers and charitable food redistributors to help solve their surplus food challenges.

 

This conversation unpacks;

  • Diane’s purpose to help solve the surplus food challenges
  • Her passion for the food industry and how her previous business led to Rescued
  • The challenges and wins of the last two years, moving back to New Zealand and finding her new mission
  • Her experience at The Icehouse with coaches, Carollyn Chaplin and Ken Leeming, and her key takeaways that she still refers to today, 10 years later
  • How The Icehouse community has supported her along the way and the importance of investing into networking and people
  • Her curiosity around the circular economy
  • How we can support by purchasing Rescued products from Countdown supermarkets soon and online.

And lots more!
