Gloriavale businesses stripped of FernMark licences for Moo Chews snacks and Pure Vitality health products

Two Gloriavale brands have been stripped of their government-endorsed FernMark licences as the Christian Community is once again in court over labour issues.

Moo Chews milk-based snacks for children and Pure Vitality health products have had their FernMark licences revoked by government agency New Zealand Story, which said it had taken the action “in light of the current publicity” after taking advice from its in-house lawyers and law firm Buddle Findlay.

The FernMark is used to promote New Zealand products overseas, and licencees must be “of good character and repute,” and comply with all relevant New Zealand laws and regulations.
