Sourcing
Peerless Foods will always endeavour to source ingredients and packaging from local Australian businesses.
Australian grown non-GM canola seeds
Further supporting Australians and Australian farmers, Peerless Foods uses oil crushed from Australian grown non-GM canola seeds for its Tablelands spread range.
“Peerless Foods has been an active and welcomed member of the Australian Oilseeds Federation for many decades, and continues to demonstrate strong support for Australian farmers through sourcing canola oil from domestic sources.
Without the commitment of companies like Peerless, the Australian canola industry would not be the vibrant and growing industry it is today, with value in excess of $2.6bn p.a. Of this, over $2.2bn flows directly back to canola farmers and the communities in which they live.
By supporting and buying local canola based Australian produced products like margarines, spreads and cooking oils, you are directly helping Australian farmers grow stronger and more sustainable.”
