ACTA Melbourne Function
Thursday 20th March 2025

Timed alongside the key coffee exhibition for the Southern Hemisphere (M.I.C.E.)  ACTA’s Melbourne Dinner Function is held each year and always includes a fascinating industry discussion. Many Australian and global companies will be represented. This year the event is expected to take place once again at Victoria By Farmer’s Daughters on Federation Sq., with 2 guest speakers, and where the topics will be shortly confirmed.   Due to tremendous support and interest from member and non-member companies, last year this event sold out, assisted no doubt by the two guest speakers from ECOM and SOURCE CERTAIN speaking on the topics of soil health and traceability, respectively Thanks to our official sponsors for 2024  Jet Technologies, RPM Freight & Logistics, and Bean Alliance Group.

Over 50 invited guests came to this leading date in NSW’s coffee calendar. Sponsorship generously sponsored by COFI COM, JET TECHNOLOGIES and RPM FREIGHT & LOGISTICS.
