There’s a reason getting ranging at Harris Farm Markets feels like a milestone. Founded in 1971 by Dave and Cath Harris — a single stall, a family, and an uncompromising standard for great food — Harris Farm Markets has grown into one of Australia’s most loved independent grocery retailers without losing what made it special. Second generation, still family-run, still independently minded.
Stores across New South Wales and Queensland, a growing online channel, and a customer base that actively seeks out brands worth finding. These are the shoppers who read the back of the pack, who tell their friends, and who return. Harris Farm Markets range with conviction and their customers know it.
If there’s one buyer in the room you want to leave an impression on, it’s this one.
Mr Vitamin’s is Australia’s largest retailer of vitamins, supplements, and natural health products. They have operated for over 25 years and have stores located across NSW, Victoria and Queensland. Their in-store team includes qualified naturopaths, nutritionists, and sports specialists which means ranging decisions are made by people who genuinely understand what they’re selling. For health-focused CPG brands, that’s a very different conversation to the one you’d have with a major.
Panetta Mercato Baulkham Hills is a gourmet food destination in Sydney’s Hills District, known for its deli, specialty grocery, fresh produce, and an extensive local and imported cheese offer. The customer walking through that door is already sold on quality. They’re looking for brands that match their standard.
Supabarn is a family-owned supermarket chain founded in Canberra in 1991. With stores across the ACT and NSW, including three Sydney locations, Supabarn’s focus is on the freshest possible products, supporting local producers, and backing their communities — everything the majors pay lip service to but rarely deliver.
Supabarn’s range spans traditional, wholefoods, organic, and gourmet, with a deli, seafood, and produce offering that punches well above its weight.
For emerging CPG brands, Supabarn represents a genuine retail partner — one that actually reads labels, backs quality, and gives independent brands the shelf space they deserve.
The Natural Grocery Company operates three of Australia’s most respected organic and wholefood retail brands: Flannerys, Kunara, and Fundies Lismore. If your brand is organic, natural, or wholefood-positioned, this is the retail group that already has your customer walking through the door.
How will you help inspire their customers to eat well, eat locally & look after their wellbeing in a holistic way?
TJX Companies is the world’s largest off-price retailer — the parent company behind TK Maxx, TJ Maxx, Marshalls, and more. They move volume, they move fast, and right now they’re actively seeking gourmet and specialty food brands from Australasia and Southeast Asia for their Australian stores and for export. A different kind of retail conversation — and a significant one.
