LUCY MCLEOD
(MIRAKA)
Lucy McLeod joined Taupo dairy company Miraka from London
premium fashion label Eskandar over eight years ago.
Since making the move she has instigated significant changes
in the iwi-owned company’s supply chain processes. “There are
actually a lot of similarities between the two industries – it’s all
about shifting things from one place to another as efficiently as
possible,” says Lucy. Packaging waste and road transport have
been a big focus for Lucy, who has increased annual delivery
volume while reducing trucks on the road by almost 50%. Like
Miraka, she makes business decisions for the long-term.
“Reducing road transport and using locally-made packaging that
is recyclable have made big improvements in our environmental
and community impact. It’s about thinking differently and keeping
the bigger picture in mind,” says Lucy.
