EzyChef was founded by directors who collectively bring over 130 years of experience in the food industry. From the beginning, our mission has been to use 100% Australian-grown produce to create high-quality Puree and Mash products that are both nutritious and easy for our customers to use. Our long-term goal has always been to be the supplier of choice, delivering products that consistently meet and exceed expectations.
We take pride in maintaining the highest standards across all stages of manufacturing, handling, storage, and delivery. EzyChef is HACCP, Organic, Halal, and SQF certified, demonstrating our strong commitment to food safety, quality, and compliance. Our team regularly participates in training and awareness programs aligned with the Food Standards Code and HACCP principles. This ensures that every product leaving our facility reflects the care, consistency, and professionalism our customers rely on.
Continuous improvement remains central to our operations. We encourage open communication across all departments to enhance internal processes, strengthen our food safety culture, and ensure we remain a reliable partner within the industry.
EzyFoods was established in Australia in 2008 with a clear objective to improve food offerings within the Aged Care and Hospital sectors. Early collaboration with Food Science Australia (CSIRO) played a key role in developing shelf-stable, texture-modified vegetables. Supported by research and market acceptance studies, this innovation fuelled our expansion into full-scale product commercialisation and the establishment of a dedicated manufacturing facility in Victoria.
From our modest factory in Laverton North, our directors expanded the business into a diverse range of 100% Australian, pure vegetable purees. Over time, we broadened our product line to include Soups and Stocks, Fresh Cuts, Blended Vegetables, Freeze-Dried Powders, Sauces, Fruit Coulis, and Toppings meeting the evolving needs of healthcare providers and foodservice professionals.
As a proudly Australian company, much of our processing equipment was custom-designed and built locally. To support our continued growth, we relocated to a purpose-built facility in Broadmeadows in 2017, where we continue to innovate and deliver solutions that support the health and wellbeing of Australians nationwide.
