natural power of the hive. With a team of 550+ 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 scientific knowledge on Mānuka
trees, the many benefits of Mānuka honey and propolis and bee welfare. We have planted millions of
native trees, improving our natural ecosystems and biodiversity, and mitigating climate change in
conjunction with our focus on carbon emissions reduction, while helping ensure the supply of high quality
Mānuka honey. In 2023 Comvita was certified B Corp, a global community of like-minded companies that
