On the 4th November 2009 ACTA held an AGM and annual elections.
A fantastic evening set in the stylish setting of the board room in the Park Hyatt at the Rocks.
The Chairman Les Schirato gave a comprehensive and enlightening presentation with invaluable statistics and graphs on the Australian coffee market. The AGM was then followed by a cocktail function, which was a great networking event with beautiful elegant food and beverages.
Everyone at ACTA wishes to thank the outgoing Committee, who has volunteered their valuable time and selfless efforts to the Association and therefore to the Australian coffee industry, in which we have seen a steady and successful growth.
A special thanks goes to the outgoing Chairman Les Schirato from Vittoria Coffee, through his dedication to the industry he is an invaluable asset to the Association and the Australian Coffee industry at large. We are very privileged to continue to have his support on our Committee.
