For national food grower Fresh Select, vegetables are big business.
Headquartered in Melbourne’s Werribee South region, deemed the ‘salad bowl of Victoria,’ Fresh Select is one of the largest lettuce and brassica farmers in Australia.
“I love growing food, I love cooking with food. Vegetables are so interesting, there’s a lot of different varieties,” said Fresh Select CEO, John Said.
But it’s not just what ends up on your plate that’s important to John Said.
The Said family businesses have long been focused on using sustainable farming techniques to positively impact people’s health by providing quality produce.
The Melbourne-based farming company grows broccoli, cauliflower, lettuces, cabbages and brussels sprouts, distributing a total of 26 product types to local and overseas markets, including Coles in Australia.
