Human Rights
We take our human rights obligations seriously as an organisation and have developed relevant policies, training and risk-assessments to ensure that we are responding to the ever-changing risks that exist in a globalised economy with a diverse supply chain.
We pride ourselves on adhering to the highest applicable legal and ethical standards. Our business is conducted in compliance with all applicable laws and the unwavering integrity of each employee is vitally important. All employees are engaged accordingly to clear and comprehensive contracts in line with National Employment Standards under the Fair Work Act 2009 and/or industry awards and requirements.
Our organisation utilises season labour workers, this is facilitated using reputable labour hire providers.
Safe and Quality Products
In comparison to other mainstream edible oils, extra virgin olive oil is unique in that it is simply the juice of the fruit, extracted without high-heat or the use of chemicals or solvents. Even with a simple extraction method, we always strive to ensure that our products meet the highest quality grades and are manufactured to the strictest safety regulations to ensure our customers can enjoy a high-quality and safe experience.
We take our role as an extra virgin olive oil ambassador seriously and constantly advocate for consumer transparency around the different grades of olive oils and to shift preferences towards healthier and unadulterated oils.
