SPC and the Goulburn Valley: A fruitful connection

Nestled in the heart of Victoria’s fertile Goulburn Valley, SPC has been a cornerstone of Australian food production for over a century. Known for its premium canned fruits, baked beans, and tomatoes, SPC sources much of its produce from this rich agricultural region, creating a strong, enduring partnership between the brand and the land.

The Goulburn Valley’s temperate climate, reliable water supply, and fertile soils results in exceptional quality produce. Our deep local connection with regional growers allows us to maintain quality and freshness in our products, ensuring that Australian families can enjoy healthy and nutritious options and eat well.

Over the years some things have changed, but we still take the best quality produce in the peak of the season and preserve it as we have done for more than 100 years. Our employees and the local community have helped us build the business into what it is today; a leading food and beverage company, respected for having some of the best, clean, green and safest produce our country can offer.

Now as part of the broader SPC Global business, along with the Original Beverages Co, Nature One and Natural Ingredients, SPC’s local products are making their way from our factory in Shepparton to the global stage. Our Australian-made products, fruits and vegetables can now be found in supermarkets and online in countries from China to the US, and across South-east Asia.

As we look to the future and we reimagine nourishment and wellness for consumers globally, we’re proud to share the legacy of high quality, sustainable, Australian-grown food and beverages with the world.
