Sugarcane grower elected to Australian Made Campaign board
The Australian Made Campaign has welcomed Alf Cristaudo to its board of directors. A sugarcane grower from Queensland, Cristaudo is the former chairman of Canegrowers Australia and recently completed his terms as director of the National Farmers’ Federation.
He is currently a director of AustSafe Superannuation and Ravensdown Fertiliser Australia. He has played a significant role in advancing the sugarcane industry, holding senior positions within peak industry bodies and advisory committees throughout his career.
Cristaudo was nominated for Australian Made Campaign’s board of directors by the National Farmers’ Federation. The board selected him based on his long history of active grower, industry and community representation.
“We are delighted that Alf has agreed to join the board,” said Australian Made Campaign chairman David Gray.
“Mr Cristaudo’s appointment will help strengthen the ties between the Australian Made, Australian Grown logo and the agricultural sector, and his insights into the Queensland business community will be greatly valued.”
At the Australian Made Campaign’s AGM, retiring directors (by rotation) Glenn Cooper and Allyn Beard were re-elected for a further term, and casual vacancy appointees Nicki Anderson and Michele Levine were formally elected.
The full board of directors now comprises:
- David Gray AM (chairman), MD, David Gray & Co Pty Ltd
