The University of Sydney Business School's Honour Society, Beta Gamma Sigma recognised Ronni Kahn, the CEO and founder of OzHarvest as an outstanding business community leader at the recognition ceremony on 29 May 2019 in the Great Hall.
Ronni Kahn AO founded OzHarvest in 2004, driven by a passion to make a difference and stop good food going to waste; she started with one van in Sydney. After changing the law to make it safe for companies to donate surplus food, she has grown OzHarvest to be Australia’s leading food rescue organisation, opened the first rescued food supermarket and is now taking the unique food rescue model global. Ronni is a powerhouse in the fight against global food waste.
OzHarvest partners annually with the United Nations Environment Programme to raise awareness on the issue and is working with Government and key stakeholders to halve food waste nationally by 2030. The ripple effect of her commitment is fuelling action across the globe.
