For over 30 years, we’ve been crafting better-for-you products that deliver on taste and quality.
Snacks you love, brands you trust—made right here
From the refreshing hit of JILA® mints to the bold flavours of JOLS® pastilles, the high-protein, low-sugar bars of TEAM NUTRITION®, and the impossibly soft marshmallows from THE SOSOFT MARSHMALLOW CO.®, we’re in the business of making snacks people reach for again and again. And we don’t stop there—we also bring some of the country’s biggest brands to life through world-class contract manufacturing.
We’re not just a manufacturer—we’re a partner in innovation.
With over $35 million invested in world-class facilities and cutting-edge technology over the past decade, Ferndale is built for high-volume, high-quality production. Our three Ballarat-based facilities are designed for scale, efficiency and precision, supporting some of Australia’s most recognised brands in confectionery, bars and snacks.
The experts in co-manufacturing and private label.
Whether you’re developing a new product or looking for a trusted partner to grow an existing brand, our expert teams in R&D, food technology and quality assurance work alongside you to create market-ready products that stand out.
Three decades in, we’re still growing, still innovating and still making products people love.
