The New Zealand Beverage Council is delighted to announce the appointment of Emily Fuller as its new General Manager of Public Affairs.

The NZBC represents the non-alcoholic beverage industry in New Zealand including manufacturers, brand owners and suppliers.

Chair Bruce Sherman says Emily has a strong public affairs background and has spent the last three years working in public affairs for the retail sector.
