Go Vita 2021 Annual Report

CHAIRPERSON’S REPORT “2020–2021 was a challenging year for all of our communities as we navigated a COVID affected world ... despite these challenges, Go Vita Group Ltd continued to reliably deliver products and services to you, its customers, and deliver a reassuring company performance for you, its shareholders.”

We are members of: Complementary Medicines Australia (CMA) - The peak industry body for the complementary medicines industry representing manufacturers, raw material suppliers, distributors, consultants, retailers, allied health professionals and educators. The Business Council of Co-operatives and Mutuals (BCCM) : Australia’s only peak body for co-operatives and mutuals across all industries. The National Retail Association (NRA) : A not-for-profit organisation that represents the interests of retailers across Australia. Australian Packaging Covenant Organisation (APCO): A not-for-profit organisation leading the development of a circular economy for packaging in Australia.

For more than 30 years, Go Vita health food stores have led the health and wellness industry in Australia, helping people in communities across the country to embrace health and wellness through awareness, education and support. We are a co-operative and each of our stores is individually owned and operated, each is unique and this, we truly believe, is one of our greatest strengths. Through the collective efforts of the co-operative, our stores are able to offer better prices, extensive product offerings and more services to all customers. We love what we do and are proud of the reputation we have built for Go Vita – the place to go for trustworthy, professional and personalised health and wellness advice, and an extensive range of products and services. We have over 300 natural health practitioners working across our stores nationwide. Go Vita operates a modern warehouse and distribution centre in Sydney, from where we distribute to health food shops around Australia. We are committed to making a positive difference in this world. Our focus is on promoting health and wellbeing for all. And in all that we do, preserving the planet is critical – whether looking at packaging for new products or execution of promotional campaigns we consider the impact on the environment and community as a whole.
