After a long career in various raw material trading roles, Kerry started Pure Ingredients Limited in 2006. From its small beginnings the business has grown under his stewardship to be a significant supplier in its sector, and continues to grow strongly year by year. Kerry has created a company culture centred on high service standards and sound business ethics, that respects its suppliers, its customers and its staff, and that puts long-term relationships ahead of short-term profits.

Jamie has had a steep career trajectory with Pure Ingredients, having started with us on the warehouse floor in 2012, and swiftly rising through the ranks to now hold the position of General Manager. He has a broad “ground up” understanding of our business and brings a sound level of commercial common-sense, a strong customer service ethic, a keen sense of fairness and a practical “can do” attitude to his role. Outside of work, the Waiheke Island native can be found fishing in the Hauraki Gulf, playing footy or just enjoying time with his two young boys.

As HR & Administration Manager, Sue’s role covers everything from HR and payroll through to purchasing and processing overseas orders.
