About Us

The seed of the company that would become Dardanup was planted in 1948 when its founder, Frank Panizza, began pushing a cutting cart laden with the freshest and best meat products door-to-door through south-west WA’s Ferguson Valley. From these humble beginnings, Frank’s family-owned company has grown into the state’s most notable brand leader in the meat industry, with Australia-wide distribution, a fleet of modern refrigerated trucks and a chain of retail stores.

Despite dramatic change, we still maintain the traditional values that Frank instilled, from our focus on service, through to our commitment to innovation. With our dedication to continuously achieving excellent standards, our customers enjoy and expect a highly maintained assurance of both quality and quantity control.

Like all great businesses, we consider one of our best accomplishments to be our investment in our people. We employ over 250 Western Australians and have developed a reputation for exceptional retention of staff at all levels by offering a positive, proactive, safe and secure working environment.

Dardanup. A proud history and an exciting future.
