Humble Beginnings with a Big Vision
PureHarvest is a family-founded business that’s been dedicated to bringing wholesome, organic food to families for over 40 years, starting as a small health food store and developing over time to become one of Australia’s largest manufacturers of natural and organic foods.
PureHarvest’s story began in 1979 with a simple mission: to offer healthy, organic options to their local community. Back then, they were just a small store in Prahran, Victoria, selling grains and beans. But even in those early days, the founders saw the potential of organic food and were determined to share its benefits with others.
They were trailblazers, introducing Australia to products like soy milk, rice milk, and oat milk long before these became mainstream. Their dedication to pioneering new products is evident in their timeline, starting with the first Australian made and grown soy milk under the Aussie Soy brand in 1987. As of now, their full range of certified organic options includes plant milks, sweeteners, juices, muesli, sauces and grain cakes.
Organic Integrity
At PureHarvest, being organic is more than a certification – it’s a way of life. Their products are crafted from whole, natural ingredients, reflecting a belief that nature provides everything we need to live healthily. They emphasise whole foods with minimal processing to ensure that their products are as close to their natural state as possible. This commitment extends beyond the products to their practices—ethical sourcing, sustainable packaging, and a strong stance against GMOs.
The brand’s commitment goes beyond the farm and factory. They believe in supporting local communities and strong, personal connections. From their beginnings in Prahran to their current operations in Drouin, Victoria, they’ve remained true to their roots as a 100% family owned and run business. They support local families and community groups, believing that thriving communities are essential to a successful enterprise.
