Community
Italian inspired…Australian made.
For us, feeding people and eating together is an act of love, always. Respect for our ingredients, respect for people and respect for the environment. We combine these ingredients in all that we do.
We are proud to be embracing sustainable practices in our daily operations and are a proud supporter and advocate for local Aussie farmers and Aussie ingredients. The world is hungry for food that’s better for them, for the planet and for communities. Through our efforts, we hope to build a better tomorrow, one step at a time.
Local Aussie Manufacturing
As a local manufacturer, providing jobs in our local communities and supporting our farmers and local food industry. It is important to us that we are advocating for and helping drive the Australian economy by manufacturing 100% in Australia. We believe in championing our farmers and in turn, the local food industry.
We’re for Aussie Farmers, local suppliers, ethical sourcing and premium quality without mass-produced commercial product. Fresh ingredients and food that is actual food, meaning better for families and better for the environment. By locally sourcing, it ensures that our products have low food miles, in turn, ensuring a lower carbon footprint.
Sustainable Supply Chain
At the end of 2022, early 2023, we will be transitioning to a new state of the art manufacturing facility with ecological sustainability at the forefront. Reducing our carbon footprint through reduction in waste, energy, water, and resources usage.
As part of our sustainability code, it’s crucial that we use premium 100% Australian Wheat from local growers all sustainably sourced, supporting and advocating our Aussie farmers. We only use locally sourced produce and ingredients wherever possible & use world-class provenance sourced ingredients for where it counts. This is paramount to us as because it not only means that we have an unparalleled product, but it also means that our customers can have complete trust in our products.
When sourcing internationally and provenance important products, we’re selective about who we partner with and adhere to our ethical sourcing policy, ensuring that the products are not only compliant, but unparalleled.
We use only 100% recyclable packaging, and all our cartons are made from recycled material from FSC certified forests. Our packaging is designed with its full life cycle in mind ensuring that the carton and plastic can be completely recycled and is made from 100% recycled material.
We are committed to revising and improving our sustainability practices as our business grows.
Doughnation – Our CSR Program
We’re proud to have initiated our corporate social responsibility program, Doughnation, that exists to support national and local communities and make a positive change, particularly in the areas of food waste, hunger, and children’s health. We will support local communities making a difference, as well as a national scale program.
We’re currently regular supporters of organisations such as OzHarvest and Foodbank, amongst others. As we continue to grow Doughnation, we endeavour to increase the positive change that we can make to local communities. We will run the program across both foodservice and retail as well as a significant annual major campaign.
Part of the program is activities that build upon, and speak volumes about our pillars of family, sharing and joy. We have the honour of hosting pizza making classes at the Sydney Children’s Hospital, Westmead, with the inspiring children, bringing a bit of joy to their day and making a difference to ours.
We are proud members of FIA (Foodservice Industry Association) and have initiated becoming a signatory of the Australian Packaging Covenant Australia. (APCA).
