Community & Environment
Being socially and environmentally responsible isn’t a marketing ploy, it’s common
sense.
From the inception of NHI in 1997, as a raw material supply company, we have worked
around the globe. From the South Pacific, Australia, Europe, Asia and South America
we have established growing, harvesting, drying and manufacturing operations in
first and third world countries. We have worked with native people, local governments,
trade associations and a wide array of natural resources all to find that common
sense and logic leads to social and environmental responsibility. The irony is that
social and environmental responsibility and the true form of globalization leads
to a stronger more viable long term business. And this is the foundation upon which
NHI was built:
- Fair trade-based relationships.
- Co ownership & joint ventures with the local people.
- Local management & employment.
- Combination of traditional wisdom, science & bio dynamic farming principles.
- Crop rotations.
- Recycled materials & vegetable inks.
