Want to find out how the Food and Grocery Code of Conduct can protect you as a grower?
AUSVEG is delivering the Know your Grocery Code program, proudly supported by the Australian Government. The training will be delivered across Australia from July 2026 through to March 2028.
The Know your Grocery Code training will:

- How you can use the Code to confidently negotiate with grocery businesses and secure a fairer deal when negotiating with large supermarkets
The training will be delivered online and in-person workshops across metropolitan, regional and rural areas and will be accessible to all fresh produce horticultural suppliers.
Training will be delivered by NextGen, Australia’s leading provider of Code training, working closely with industry peak bodies and regulators. Since 2022, NextGen has delivered negotiation training programs for horticulture growers across Australia, training more than 230 growers in 2024/25 alone
