Jason Brown is the new managing director at Label Line, taking the reins at the 24-year-old Bayswater-based business, which specialises in supplying self-adhesive blank labels.

Label Line provides labels to Australia and New Zealand, and claims to have the world’s largest selection of self-adhesive blank pre-cut A4 labels. They come in offset or digital formats, in 70 different stock types.

Brown said, “I am really excited to share the news that I am starting at Label Line, which has been a stalwart of the label industry for 24 years. Pioneers in providing trade printers with die-cut sheet solutions, with 20,000 permutations and counting, it has evolved the offering to include roll-to-roll and printed labels. I am looking forward to reconnecting.”

Brown was formerly CEO of Melbourne-based digital pouch printing operation ePac. It has now restructured its management, with regional managing directors responsible for several sites. Sanjit Menezes is in the role of managing director, Asia Pacific, which includes Australia and the other regional sites.

Food & Drink Business

The largest shareholder, director, and managing director of health and wellness company Jatcorp, Zhan (Jack) Wang has resigned, effective immediately. He remains the largest shareholder. Sunny Jian Xin Liang continues as CEO.

In recent years, there has been growing recognition that food and agriculture should be viewed not solely as economic sectors but as pillars of national resilience and security. The combined pressures of geopolitical tensions, natural disasters, tech vulnerabilities, and climate change are driving broader recognition of sovereign risk in food production and supply chains, placing it alongside traditional domains of national defence and security. MEQ CEO, Remo Carbone, writes.

The a2 Milk Company says it’s expecting mid to high single-digit revenue growth in FY25, updating its previous guidance of mid single-digit. EBITDA as a percentage of revenue is expected to be broadly in line with FY24. The company has also introduced a dividend policy.
