Consumer NZ Keynote: Our Findings on Greenwashing, Product Durability & Right To Repair
Consumer NZ recently published the findings of an investigation into green claims on products found at the supermarket. We have invited Jon Duffy, Chief Executive of Consumer NZ to discuss:
Jon will also touch on another key element of sustainability that Consumer NZ has been focused on: durability and the right to repair. He asks if it’s realistic to demand better quality, longer-lasting products that can be easily repaired and keep the affordability of those products in check. What needs to change at a system level to enable this and is there a marketing advantage for businesses that invest in durability and repairability?
Jon Duffy joined as Chief Executive of Consumer NZ in April 2020. Previously he was the Chair of the Consumer NZ Board.
Jon has had a long career in the consumer protection field including roles as the Assistant Privacy Commissioner, Head of Trust & Safety at Trade Me, and Senior Investigator at the Commerce Commission.
Jon is currently sits as a Director of the Banking Ombudsman Scheme.
Jon is a big fan of people getting a fair deal, whether it’s making sure marketing is straight up, how our data is being collected and used or looking at the impact what we buy has on our environment.
Jon speaks regularly on consumer issues and is increasingly interested in the convergence between privacy and consumer protection as well as how the high concentration of certain markets such as supermarkets and air travel in New Zealand affect consumers.
