WHAT TO EXPECT
Regional Development Australia:
RDA will kick off the morning with a short intro, before diving into our guest interview and an overview of current grants.
In Conversation With:
Trevor De Groot and Bernadette Stack | De Groot Coffee Co
Join us for a conversation with Trevor and Bernadette, the founders behind De Groot Coffee Co. From a cappuccino van in Adelaide to a thriving coffee roasting business by the sea at Port Elliot, their story shows how passion for quality, community connection and a sea-change lifestyle can build a resilient manufacturing business.
Championing local manufacturing:
Real stories and practical pathways for manufacturers
Manufacturing contributes $2.17 billion to the Adelaide Hills, Fleurieu and Kangaroo Island (AHFKI) economy and employs more than 3,100 people locally. It's a significant sector that doesn't always get the recognition it deserves.
The RDA Manufacturing Network Breakfasts shine a light on our 600+ regional manufacturers, share practical insights from businesses like yours, and connect you with the funding and support that can make a real difference.
We look forward to seeing you there!
Following the morning's presentations, attendees will have the opportunity to
network over a light breakfast featuring produce from regional manufacturers.
