US remains important market - Fonterra

OPINION: The Hound would have thought - with the end of all the Covid regulations earlier this month - it would see public entities no longer using the restrictions to limit media access.

It begs the question - if it no longer has the excuse of using Covid health requirements in fronting the media in person -what is Fonterra, its chair and leadership trying to hide?
