Reputation Counts

Australia’s largest foodservices network

In an age of multinational corporations, it’s nice to know that Australia’s foodservices industry is still led by a local, family-owned business. As you will see, PFD Food Services has survived and thrived in private hands thanks to good management and sound ethics. We are committed to outstanding service and professionalism at every level of our operation, regardless of customer size, value or location.

Taking the freshest catch straight to your kitchen, PFD Food Services has been proudly supplying fresh seafood across Australia since 1943.

Around the clock and around the country, we continue our tradition of delivering the highest quality, sustainably sourced fresh seafood to your kitchen, wherever you are. Our buyers are up before sunrise, hand selecting directly from the boats that bring in the finest seafood from Australian waters. Our specialised fishmongers fillet and prepare the best wild, caught and farmed fish, shellfish and crustaceans.

Across the country, our refrigerated distribution network ensures your seafood is of the highest quality and always arrives fresh. By sourcing the very best seafood from the pristine waters of Australia, we maintain a focus on quality and freshness.

We can prepare and deliver to your needs, whether you are after a specific variety of seafood, a specialised cut or are simply looking for something a bit different for your menu.

Fresh Seafood

Fresh Meat Working with some of the best farmers in Australia, we ensure that the freshest and highest quality meat is delivered from the paddock to your plate. Our suppliers are committed to every stage of the processing procedure, from the livestock to the maintenance of the cold chain and the cold distribution.

PFD Food Services continues to meet the needs of our customers and consumers by offering a premium and fresh product. We remain a leader by providing fresh meat products to the Foodservice industry, by having a dedicated sales team who are focused on presenting an expert range of menu solutions to our customers.

Fresh To Go

V DELI ERIN

In September 2012, we expanded our Foodservice network by acquiring Australian Convenience Foods Group Pty Ltd, and turned it into the leader of ‘ready to eat’ food.

ACF became known as PFD Food Services Fresh To Go and we established it as a trailblazer in the ‘ready to eat’ food convenience market, being the only such business to have a national presence. It is a major supplier of ready-made sandwiches, microwavable snacks and other products to market sectors that include Petrol & Convenience, Airline, Healthcare and Food Service.

Fresh To Go’s pre-packaged range is made with only the freshest ingredients offering a full menu solution. Fresh To Go’s products include: - Baguettes - Croissants - Toasties Wraps - Sandwiches - Tortillas - Muffins.

Our products complement an existing menu or create an exciting new option for customers who demand quality, convenience and choice. Based on a list of ingredients, recipe, nutritional needs or budget, Fresh To Go creates products to suit our customers.
