2023: Year in Review
2023 was a watershed year for us, but we are only in this position because of our customers and supporters who have help us achieve what we did last year.
We are also grateful for the support of our families, without whom none of this is possible.
While we understand there are still things we need to work on, we’d like to reflect on some of the wins during the calendar year.
1 - Team
By the end of the year, the team had grown to three. We are blessed to have Whitney and Lisa on board and thank them for their contribution last year.
2 - Continuous Improvement
We are constantly striving to improve our business. We graduated from the Entrepreneurial Business School Entrepreneurial University Program and are now undertaking further development with a Cert IV at TAFE Qld and Workforce Planning.
Here’s a selection of organisations we have supported in 2023.
3 - Community
We are committed to supporting relevant community initiatives. We set aside funds from every invoice and direct them to support community organisations. Our financial community contribution in 2023 was approximately 1.5% of our sales turnover. Additionally, Stewart our Director has donated countless hours supporting the Australian Institute of Food Science and Technology through participation on various committees and through its mentoring program.
4 - Business
We finished the year strongly setting consecutive sales records and over 130% growth on the previous calendar year. We exported our services for the first time. We helped over 18 customers grow their business through our NPD, food safety and food labelling services.

Once again we are grateful for the year just past, and look forward to helping your food business more in 2024.
