Securefresh Pacific, an Active Equities controlled company, is having a $2M dispute with
soon-to-list (NZSE) Vertex. The exclusive agency for a low oxygen meat chilling packing
system is held by Vertex having bought the Asia-Pacific patents from Securefresh Pacific.
The dispute centers on the fact that a second payment was to made if the technology, which
replaces oxygen with carbon dioxide within the meat pack, could be used with foam trays
instead of rigid plastic ones. This, according to Vertex, failed to occur within 12 months of
the sale.
