Shareholder Relations
The Board continues to promote the co-operative nature of the company and reflects this in its dealings with its supplying shareholders.
The Board and management maintain regular direct contact with shareholders through a significant number of meetings held with shareholders throughout New Zealand. These meetings are also supported by the Shareholders’ Council, Area Managers and the Fonterra Farmer Network. They provide an important forum for shareholders to engage with directors and management and to gain a better understanding of the Fonterra business.
The Fonterra shareholder call centre also continues to provide an important service through which shareholders can contact the Company to make comments or to raise questions or complaints, and ensures that shareholders' concerns are addressed. Fonterra also maintains the Fencepost website, which assists in day-to-day dealings with shareholders, as well as this website, which contains general information on the Company and is accessible to the public.
