Our Grains

Where are the grains grown?

Grains are sourced from Australian producers where possible.  Due to the high protein content required for pasta manufacturing, grains are normally grown in Northern NSW or Qld.  Suppliers undergo a thorough process to determine that their methods and systems are quality backed and meet criteria before becoming an Approved Supplier. 

We are constantly on the search for new grains suitable for pasta production.  Contact us if you believe you are able to assist.
