FERMO MARCHETTI
Our inspiration is drawn from the Mediterranean diet and we remain true to Fermo’s core values of sourcing the highest quality produce, while keeping his authentic and traditional recipes.
We use fresh Australian ingredients as much as possible, and when we can’t, we source authentic ingredients from their places of origin (Kalamata olives from Kalamata, Manzanillo olives from Spain, etc). We use cholesterol free, non-GMO canola oil grown and processed in Australia.
Over the past twenty years we have continued to grow from a small, family-owned business to a state-of-the-art manufacturing facility with the capacity to process over thirty six million tomatoes annually! We’re Australia’s biggest manufacturer of semi-dried tomatoes, with modern facilities in north Queensland and Melbourne. Our pursuit of improvement and innovation drives us to integrate the latest technologies for delivering unparalleled products. Visit our NEWS PAGE to explore our newest technologies and processes.
Crafting bespoke flavours for every industry and fuelling growth through culinary innovation.
At AusFresh, we want to elevate growth for diverse food businesses with innovative, tailored products. We collaborate with clients, shaping custom solutions from packaging to recipes – our expert product team partners with food services, manufacturers, restaurants, hotels, and chefs.

Our products are inspired by the Mediterranean diet which most health organisations and institutions highly recommend. The Mediterranean diet is consistently ranked as one of the healthiest diets in the world. Moreover, two of the five blue zones (areas where people live longer and have lower disease rates) consume a Mediterranean diet. It’s based on the traditional eating habits of southern European countries (predominantly Italy, Greece and Spain) and promotes whole foods, grains and olive oil in a heart-healthy diet. As a result, all of our products are made from the freshest, most authentic ingredients. We refuse to jeopardize their quality via processing. Moreover, we use the highest quality olive oil, the secret ingredient to a heart-healthy Mediterranean diet.
