SAM PARKES
TRADING MANAGER
Sam grew up on his family’s mixed sheep, beef, and cropping farm in Hawke’s Bay, New Zealand. From a young age he gained hands-on experience in livestock and land management, which inspired him to complete a Bachelor of Commerce (Agriculture) at Lincoln University. Sam has worked across both New Zealand and Australia in a range of agricultural operations from contracting and cropping to on-farm management. At Circle Foods, Sam works alongside Sam McGregor in the New Zealand office sourcing all our requirements from Australia and New Zealand into international markets.
