Kraft Heinz’s Wattie’s plans to halt frozen veg production in New Zealand, threatening seed growers and food security.
Wattie’s New Zealand, owned by Kraft Heinz, proposes ending frozen vegetable production at multiple factories, threatening contracts for arable and seed growers, especially in Canterbury, a global hub for hybrid radish and carrot seed.
The move, part of a broader restructuring, follows earlier cuts to canned goods and comes amid challenges like wet weather, disease, and imported goods undercutting local prices.
Industry leaders warn the decision could reduce domestic food production, disrupt crop rotations, and harm food security, with consultation closing March 25, 2026.
