Zespri Breaks Records with $5.9 Billion in Global Kiwifruit Sales
Zespri's sales of kiwifruit for the 2025 season have broken all past records.
According to the kiwifruit marketer, the $10 million increase payments to employees - in a year when the kiwifruit marketer’s net profit fell by nearly 34% - is due to the company ‘keeping on top of its game’.
The kiwifruit exporter’s annual report for 2023 shows employee remuneration and benefits rose nearly 7% from $140.6m to $150.3m, while net profit after taxation fell to $238.7m from $361.5m in FY22.
Net profit before tax was $331.2m in FY23 compared to $505.1m the previous financial year.
It looks like chief executive Dan Mathieson got a pay rise.
The report shows the top earner in the company had a total remuneration and benefits range of $1.990m-$1.999m compared to $1.880m-$1.889m in FY22. All right for some!
