About Us

Established in 1995, Avondale Foods has grown from a small on-farm facility into a world-class operation—proudly recognized as Australia’s Premium Fruit Ingredients Supplier.

Now Supplying Products
All Over Australia

From small family owned & operated bakeries to larger internationally recognised brands, Avondale offer a purely premium product with uncompromised quality to all its valued customers no matter how large or small.

Our Story

Five generations on, the Avondale tradition thrives, providing our valued clients with premium apple and fruit ingredients – straight from our family-owned orchard and processing facility.
Established in 1995, Avondale Foods has expanded from a small manufacturing facility on the farm to a substantial company operating out of a world-class facility. While Avondale’s facility is still on the orchard, it has expanded considerably over the years, now supplying products all over Australia, and is broadening into import and export.

As the company has grown, Avondale is still very much family-owned and operated, with our founder’s sons carrying the business forward and the fifth generation now entering the workforce. With the Pascoe family producing fruit in the productive highlands of the Towac Valley for over 100 years, we are continuing this family tradition, growing fruit solely for products that are highly valued by bakers and chefs far and wide.

Our Vision
