- The mailer - We have found an eco mailer from ‘Heaps Good Pty Ltd’, that will keep your Healthia Bee Balm dry in transit. When composted, it will be gone in 6 months with no harmful residues.
Why is it important to create jobs in the regions?
There are lots of people and families that would love to make a ‘Seachange or treechange. Unfortunately, there are a lot less job opportunities for employment in regional areas. Decentralizing our manufacturing provides the opportunity for better/new lifestyle choices.
Many kids in regional areas find it difficult to find employment and are forced to move to the cities away from their friends, family and support networks. Providing employment for these kids is life changing for them and their community.
Manufacturing in regional areas brings many financial benefits for the community such as local jobs for the manufacturing process, construction jobs for factories and supporting local suppliers and indirectly supporting local shops and services. Local councils benefit from increased rates and other revenues.
