Manaaki Live | Hannah Mellsop | Real Rad Food
Hannah – owner & founder, former chief ball roller and current CEO – began making healthy treats as a creative outlet, each dessert more drool-worthy than the last. A passionate plant-based creative, she began sharing these treats to instagram as a way to meet more like-minded people. The more Hannah shared, the more she realised she was becoming part of a greater movement; a movement towards real food and conscious consumption. These two values became the foundation for Real Rad Food, which Hannah made an official brand in 2017. Cheers to that! Since then Real Rad Food has grown from just Hannah selling her creations at local markets, to a team of 5 that provide for over 80 cafes and grocers around New Zealand, and an online store that delivers to the doors of Kiwis everyday. Even further than that Real Rad Food has become a brand that makes it easier for the every day gal to take a moment to look after their body, through the introduction of Real Rad Protein Hormonal Blend. Much like the raw treats this product was born from Hannah’s own experience with learning how to balance her hormones and look after her health despite a busy lifestyle.

Manaaki Live | Eric & Graeme | The Cookie Project
The Cookie Project is a social enterprise that that employs Kiwis with disabilities to make delicious cookies. Founded in 2018 by Graeme and Eric, our purpose is to help Kiwis with disabilities understand their own value to themselves and to society by paying them at least the minimum wage of $17.70 an hour. We’re leading New Zealand with our inclusive employment framework for the disability community, by having a pan-disability recruitment policy and we never ask for resume nor do we conduct interviews. All our cookies are hand made at the Eat My Lunch kitchen, using only the finest Kiwi ingredients like Lewis Road Creamery butter so we know you’ll love the taste as much as the purpose behind it.

Manaaki Live | Ed hemming | Director Volare Bread
Ed has a great yarn – two mates in their mid twenties start a bakery during the GFC, producing incredible quality bread and pastries for the wider Waikato and BOP. As is the way when you start a business, they had no money, no sleep, were being taken advantage of and were up against steep competition, nearly losing everything numerous times. But Volare Bread got to 2020 with 70 staff, 3 divisions and customers nationwide. Which sadly included 100% of their wholesale customers being hospitality and tourism. So what do you do with your band new 1000m2 bakery? Join us as we talk to Ed about the “s**t what now!” moment, building an on-line delivery platform in 3 days, innovating under pressure and the importance of a sense of humour!
