Background information

Comvita (NZX:CVT) was founded in 1974, with a purpose to heal and protect the world through the natural

power of the hive. With a team of 500+ people globally, united with more than 1.6 billion bees, we are the

global market leader in Mānuka honey and bee consumer goods. Seeking to understand, but never to alter,

we test and verify all our bee-product ingredients are of the highest quality in our own government-

recognised and accredited laboratory. We are growing industry scientific knowledge on bee welfare, Mānuka

trees and the many benefits of Mānuka honey and propolis. We have pledged to be carbon neutral by 2025

and carbon positive by 2030, and we are planting more than two million native trees every year. Comvita

has operations in Australia, China, North America, South East Asia, and Europe – and of course, Aotearoa

New Zealand, where our bees are thriving.
