Margaret started at FNET, as a part time consultant in February 2022, providing support to FNET’s working groups and members by running the Network’s working groups, providing information on emerging human rights risks and managing the FNET member and public resources. Prior to FNET Margaret spent many satisfying years in the Horticulture and Fresh Produce Sector, first in Kenya and then in the UK working in a technical capacity. Margaret has a passion to contribute to drive actions to improve human rights in horticulture and fresh produce supply chains down to the growers’ level. Margaret is also motivated to collaborate in work to push for just returns to the family-owned small holder farms and better working conditions for workers engaged in horticulture and food supply chains.
The Food Network for Ethical Trade (FNET) connects major UK food retailers, manufacturers, suppliers and a range of small, medium and large food companies to build more ethical trade by identifying and tackling human rights issues in food supply chains.
