Glad to say you can now add black garlic to your cheese board for a beach picnic. Get your Garlicious Grown supplies from Foodland Henley Square, the latest South Australian retailer to stock our range - very exciting with our thanks!

Part of our growing presence in South Australia (thanks Con!) Hello to Schinella's, a family store supporting growers and producers now for many years. Thanks for including our black garlic range!

Great to have Foodland Munno Para stocking our black garlic range - look out for the "Australian black garlic" shelf stand in store next week. They offer some beautiful recipes on their website too, clearly stocking great fresh all Australian produce. Many thanks

In a recent blog we talked of the beautiful retailing we saw recently in Thailand. Foodland Frewville would give them a run for their money: a glorious store with in-store chefs providing responsive customer service in gorgeous surrounds. They now include our black garlic range - available to you early next week once delivery is complete. Our black garlic will pair well with the beautiful cheese and deli selection at Foodland Frewville. Thanks to John in the Produce department for including us. 

In anticipation of joining the retailers at the High Tea Party phenomenon, we have launched a new presentation box: three 50g jars of peeled, unpeeled and powdered black garlic, ready to gift to someone cherished in your life. Gluten free, vegan friendly and gender neutral! The perfect gift to have on hand as we approach Christmas.

Just back from a Food and Beverage trade mission to Thailand - brilliantly organised by Food Innovation Australia (thanks Ron) and the Austrade team in Thailand (thanks Chanti and Stuart). We were struck by the opulence of the top end retail space - beautiful spacious stores with pretty merchandising. Lots of marble mirror and glass, with well informed staff offering tastings and expertise to their customers. Walk in cheese rooms with local and imported delicatessen offerings. In-store dining seems to be taking off: buy your steak and wine in the store, have the in-house chefs prepare to your taste with side dishes and sit to enjoy. We tried this out one evening - was a great relaxed night out!
We were accompanied by six terrific Australian food and drink businesses - all great company and terrific networking (thanks for the various distribution tips in Australia guys - all now bearing fruit!). We all attended a buyer showcase in Bangkok, meeting some 50 buyers from retail and food service sectors.  We look forward to more business opportunities in Thailand. (BTW ate some fabulous Thai food! bring on the repeat visit)

Terrific opportunity to be offering our black garlic range through Northwood and Pasadena Foodlands - thanks to both stores for their support, bringing great food from the paddock to the plate. The Chapley family have been food retailers since 1954 based on the motto ‘we love what we do’. Garlicious Grown identifies with this: we love producing healthy great tasting food and hope our customers enjoy our black garlic. 

Romeos are a family retail group in business since 1987, now enjoying tremendous success delivering cutting edge stores, showcasing fabulous retail spaces. We are thrilled to be part of their growth and look forward to doing more business in South Australia.

Thanks to the team at Metropolitan Fresh Fruiterers for ranging our black garlic offerings. Thanks too to Con Hristodoulopoulos of A2Z Sales Management now representing us in South Australia. Wonderful to have the opportunity to link our paddock to plates in South Australia. Metropolitan Fresh Fruiterers values linking their customers with growers and we appreciate that connection. 

Met Rebecca at Fantastic Food & Drink in Sydney - thanks Rebecca for taking our black garlic range home to such a beautiful market in Cottesloe. Your store looks fantastic offering such a rich array of delectable food. Hope it goes well for you.
