NZ's $3.4 BILLION Company: Farms With No Fences!
Episode Description
His company is worth $3.4 BILLION!
Craig Piggott, a kid from a dairy farm near Matamata, started building Halter ten years ago - while working part-time at... ROCKET LAB!
One of the most nervous conversations of Craig's life was telling his boss (Sir Peter Beck) about the company he'd been working on, on the side. Sir Peter's response is one of the reasons Halter stands as it does today.
It was such an inspiring conversation with Craig - farms with no fences is such an incredible concept. This truly is the next innovation in New Zealand's epic legacy of agricultural leadership.
I can't wait to see where he takes Halter next - watch or listen to the full episode, out now wherever you get your podcasts!
