The Australian Business Awards are delighted to recognise Aussie Farmers Direct as recipients of the Best Value and Enterprise Awards. The achievement of Aussie Farmers Direct in establishing a free home delivery service of 100% Australian made and owned quality produce has struck a chord with consumers and affirmed the value of ‘good old fashioned service.’
Aussie Farmers Direct has responded to a marketplace in which 85% of groceries purchased daily are made by foreign owned companies. By identifying a customer base among those consumers who value Australian made and owned grocery products Aussie Farmers Direct has seen success which has exceeded all expectations. This sustained commercial success has seen the company grow from a base of nine delivery rounds in 2006 to over sixty-three in 2008. In the same time-frame the number of employees has grown from six to fifty-five. This growth has been built on a foundation of quality, freshness, convenience and lower pricing, marking Aussie Farmers Direct as exceptionally good value.
