2020 FINALISTS

AGAIN AGAIN
Guilt-free Cups Deluxe....
After a light bulb moment in March 2018, in which Nada Piatek Managing Director, (pictured) saw a systematic approach to addressing single-use waste in the coffee industry, Again Again was born – and so was the reusable takeaway coffee cup revolution.
"Again Again offers a sustainable solution – in a Kiwi industry that sees 295 million single-use cups entering landfills and the ecosystem annually – through a reusable and refundable coffee cup share system, which stops upwards of 820,000 single-use cups entering landfills annually.” Nada tells us.
The reusable steel cups are available with a deposit and return at participating cafes, giving coffee fiends peace of mind with every sip.

FIND Recruitment has the great pleasure
of announcing the 2020 K9 Gold Winner

Head of Security, Kilbirnie Bus Depot, Tranzurban
Buster’s human is Michael Salanoa
The Find Judges said
“Buster showed outstanding commitment to his role in keeping the community moving through Covid-19 – a true superhero” (Editor: We think Busta’s PPE may have just swung it for him)
Congratulations Busta. You go into the K9 Gold Hall of Fame.
THE 2020 RUNNERS UP:
1st Runner Up:
TEDDY the Pinehaven School dog
The FIND Judges said
“ Teddy gives awesome support to Mrs McKee and all the kids in her class. Helping build our future generation one lick at a time” Teddy's kids all provided glowing written references proving Teddy is obviously very much loved and good at his job. Teddy is pictured here, centre, with Zoe left and Isla right.
2nd Runner Up:
THE ARTHUR D RILEY DOG SQUAD
Bear Atkins, Buddy Allen, Lola Allen, Porter Cameron, Toto Henry and lastly the grand dame, soon to retire Sooky Pickett (who bikes to work each day in her human's front pack as pictured).
The FIND Judges said
“We really appreciated the effort from the ADR team and the office dog to office human ratio looks spot on.”
The Runners Up will both receive framed 2020 K9 Gold Certificates.
Thank you to all of the humans who put so much time and love into their Entries. The Find Judges got so much pleasure out of reading about your dogs and seeing them in action in workplaces all over Wellington.
