The team includes:

Andrew works with the team to strengthen retailer relationships and commercial credibility, helping members navigate complex retail challenges and identify opportunities that drive growth, competitiveness and long‑term value.

Dr Duncan Craig
Director, Health, Trade & Regulatory Affairs

Duncan provides authoritative technical and regulatory leadership that supports members to deliver safe, high‑quality products, and strengthens AFGC’s influence with regulators and government on complex policy and trade issues.

Scott McGrath
Director, Stakeholder Engagement & Policy

With his strong background in political offices, Scott enhances AFGC’s ability to advocate effectively, build stakeholder alignment, and lift the sector’s profile, supporting stronger policy outcomes for members and the broader industry.
