Monica is taking over from her parents Jill Hamlyn and Graeme Crawshaw after their 34 years with New Zealand’s first commercial kiwifruit pollen company.

Eight years’ experience as an in-house lawyer in Wellington and London has given her experiences across a range of industries and organisations. Monica has recently been selected as one of four in Zespri’s Industry Governance Development Programme for 2023. ‘I aim to gain a deeper understanding of the kiwifruit industry and the challenges ahead, and subsequently contribute to new initiatives’, says Monica, ‘and I am excited to see where new thinking and a fresh approach will lead the pollination business, while maintaining our core ethos of creating value and profits for kiwifruit growers’.
