In Australia and New Zealand, we are located in rural communities in prime cropping areas. These communities are vital to our operations mand we actively support local fund raising activities and charities. McCAIN is a major supporter of United Way, with many of our employees donate to this charity via payroll deduction.
McCAIN regularly donates food products to needy organisations such as the Salvation Army and various Foodbank stations. In addition to local community support, McCAIN and its employees have fund raising activities for various charities, including the Cancer Council.
By supporting associations and charities at both local and national levels, helping to address the issues surrounding healthy diet and lifestyle, and by consulting and actively engaging with our communities on issues relating to our operations affecting them, we strive to build meaningful and lasting relationships.
We depend on the goodwill of our communities and enjoy directly giving back by supplying our food to them and recruiting our employees from within the local area wherever possible.
We recognise our responsibility as a key member of the communities in which we operate and will consult with local stakeholders wherever possible on issues such as our environmental impacts to minimise any potential noise or odour emissions from our production facilities.
