Hunter Olives - our story
Hunter
Olives is the trading name of Hunter Boutique Olive Growers Pty Ltd, a
company that was established in late 2005 by a group of olive growers who
recognized that there was a significant, emerging need for processing and
distribution services for olives.
You
may call us one-eyed but we are all greatly attached to the Hunter Valley
and we want our products to enhance the standing of the region. Our
trading name, Hunter Olives, is intended to support this.
Early
in 2006 we established premises on site at the newly re-developed Adina
Vineyard and Olive Grove. We are located next to the Adina Olive Mill
from which we contract oil processing services.
Our
processing facilities are modern and comply with relevant food processing
regulations. We are introducing HACCP in each aspect of what we do and
have an on-going commitment to quality control.
Our
aim is to provide premium product at competitive prices. Our products are
sought after by chefs and caterers as well as being available in fine food
stores. Click here to learn about our
customers and retail outlets.
Our fruit comes mainly from the small to medium size groves – anything from a few hundred trees up to several thousand. Being small has its advantages. As growers we are closely involved in what happens in our groves and, invariably, we care deeply about what we do. Collectively, our present suppliers (including shareholders) have more than 30,000 trees in production now or coming so in the next few years. This ensures that we have the ability to supply substantial quantities of oil and table fruit well into the future without prejudicing quality.
Groves
supplying fruit are located throughout the Hunter. (Refer to the list of
shareholders below). Having multiple sources of supply from multiple areas
helps ensure greater continuity of supply from year to year.
