A fresh new look
When you watch A New Zealand Food Story, you will notice that we have refreshed the BFEA logo with a bolder and more modern look. We are rolling out this new logo once the A New Zealand Food Story episodes start to air and will send you the updated logo files and style guide. The New Zealand Farm Environment Trust logo has also had a refresh so these two brands look good together side by side. Both new logos will be used at the upcoming BFEA regional event functions.
