Josh Murray of Josh's Rainbow Eggs and Manon Beauchamp-Tardieu of Little Green Panda join forces to discuss ethical business business practices. 

In this chat, hosted by Josh Griffin from the 7NEWS Young Achiever Awards, we dive into the way Josh's Rainbow Eggs and Little Green Panda were developed with their values front of mind and how the businesses grew, the challenges they faced along the way and whether their initial vision for ethical business is still possible when you start competing with the major players.

There are some great words of wisdoms in this discussion for business owners or for anyone in business, that wants to do the right thing whilst achieving their business goals.

Here's some info on the two amazing guests in this episode.

Josh Murray, Josh’s Rainbow Eggs:
Josh started his business, Josh’s Rainbow Eggs, at the age of 9 with 40 hens on his family farm. Fast forward to 2025 and Josh’s Rainbow Eggs have developed a unique model of free-range egg production with mobile solar powered sheds, custom designed by us and made in Melbourne. With a focus on ethical practices, sustainability and a quality product, Josh’s Rainbow Eggs have grown to be a major player in the Victorian egg industry and are stocked in Woolworths, Coles, IGA and more.
Josh believes in using business as a force for good, which is why he introduced the Josh’s Rainbow Eggs Ethical Business Award as a category in the 7NEWS Young Achiever Awards program, to encourage and celebrate other young business owners prioritising ethical practices in their businesses.


Manon Beauchamp-Tardieu, Little Green Panda:
Manon Beauchamp-Tardieu is driving a greener, ethical future for businesses and the planet. Manon founded Little Green Panda, a company reshaping the packaging industry with sustainable and innovative solutions. By transforming agricultural waste into eco-friendly straws and packaging, Manon combines environmental responsibility with ethical practices. Her collaborations with Southeast Asian farmers and The Bridge Inc. highlight her commitment to empowering communities and promoting inclusivity. Despite pandemic-related challenges, Manon remains dedicated to refining operations and exploring local manufacturing in Australia. Little Green Panda's revolutionary products, such as home compostable straws and cutlery made from upcycled coffee grounds, have replaced millions of single-use plastics.
