AN AUSTRALIAN FRUIT SOLUTIONS BUSINESS

QUALITY AND CUSTOMER SERVICE ARE OUR TOP PRIORITIES

Located in the expanding hinterland town of Yandina on Queensland's Sunshine Coast, Tropico Fruits Pty Ltd is a 100% Australian owned and operated company. We are one of the leading processors of 100% Australian tropical fruits. With more than 40 years of operations, Tropico has established a long-standing relationship with Australian growers, allowing us to procure high-quality fruit from across the country.

Our relationship with international fruit trading houses positions us to source and supply not only tropical fruit but the highest-quality fruits and vegetables in almost any format, from both hemispheres.

As a fruit solutions company, quality and customer service are our number one priority. We process a number of juice and puree products, as well as manufacturing a premium range of stabilised fruit preparations for the dairy and bakery industry. We have a dedicated product development team with local and international experience in formulating fruit-based solutions for the food and beverage sector.

As a business we are focused on establishing and building long-term business partnerships aimed at delivering value for all parties.

Tropico is fully accredited under a certified SQF and HACCP Food Safety Management System. We also carry full Organic, Kosher and Halal certification.
