Their passion is woven into everything they do, from their commitment to great taste, to using non-GM ingredients, to sourcing locally wherever possible. With brands such as Bean Supreme, Naked Cuisine, Vegie Delights, Lisa’s and Kato, all produced from their modern Avondale factory, this is indeed a rare opportunity for a technically savvy Technologist with creative flair / or a commercial Chef with industrial production experience.
