BEHIND THE SCENES | Good progress against the odds! - 08/10/12
Repairs to our Christchurch factory are progressing well: the bare structure of the factory building is standing tall,
with newly strengthened floors along with interior and exterior walls!
As you’ll see from the photos, it’s taken a lot of work to get it to this point after the demolition earlier this year.
Reconstructing our Christchurch factory continues to be a complex project, as repair work continues to meet the new
building codes.
We still have some final interior work to complete before the repair and recommissioning of our production line
throughout October/November so that the time-honoured craft of making and blending Marmite can begin.
Thank you so much for your loyalty and patience - we really do appreciate it. Thanks also to our hard-working
reconstruction team, who’ve been labouring through the cold months of winter, working long hours to get the black gold
back in your pantry as soon as possible!
We know the waiting is tough and we are again asking you to understand that there will be a time lapse between the start
of production and the availability of product on-shelf. We have not set a back-on-shelf date yet as we anticipate we
will have some production hurdles to overcome. As soon as we know when that will be, we will let everyone know via
Facebook and the media. We’ll keep you posted.
