The Best Produce
We’ve been growing our relationship with local farmers for over 50 years.
Today we work with over 120 growers across Australia, and we’re committed to providing the ideal conditions for all our farmers to grow and flourish.
On mainland Australia, we work with over 40 growers spread across VIC, NSW and SA. We work with around 80 growers in Tasmania, from Smithton to the north east and down to the central areas. Together, we produce the fries that Aussies love.

COMMUNITIES
Communities are a key part of our ecosystem, we can’t succeed without them. That’s why we give as much back as we can, and will continue to do our part in the future.

Businesses and People
Over 50 years of natural growth.
We’ve come a long way since purchasing our first factory in 1971. Today we have a strong network of three factories in Australia across Ballarat and Smithton, with a dedicated central office in Melbourne.
We have a thriving workforce of over 1,100 people. By focusing on local produce, we’ve naturally grown to employ over 900 locals in our plants and over 250 in our offices across ANZ, contributing to healthy and thriving local economies.

Sustainably
We are committed to our four-part Sustainability Strategy.
