Aussie grown Perfection Fresh has been around for over 43 years, since 1978 they’ve been supplying premium, Australian grown fresh produce including the much-loved Qukes® Baby Cucumbers.
Three Three’s Established in 1919, is a 5th generation, family-run Australian business. They supply and manufacture a range of quality products, including condiments, spreads, pickled vegetables, and sauces.
The partnership between two family-run Australian companies came about from Three Three’s desire to create a premium range of pickles using Aussie grown produce, which previously hadn’t existed on mainstream supermarket shelves. For Perfection Fresh Qukes® it has enabled greater utilisation of the entire crop – some baby Qukes® grow in different shapes and sizes – while there’s nothing wrong with the produce, it doesn’t fit within the existing pack formats.
Tim McAlpine from Three Threes said: “For over 100 years Three Threes has proudly provided the best condiments to Australian consumers. It would not be possible without all the hard work and dedication from Australian farmers. Perfection Fresh is perfect example of this and we are extremely proud to be working with another Australian family-run business who strive for top quality produce every time. It is only a young partnership but both families see huge potential working together into the distant future!”
Rather than perfectly good product going to waste, this partnership enables Perfection Fresh and Three Three’s to include Qukes® as part of the new McAlpine Signature Range. It is an excellent example of crop utilization and environmental sustainability helping to ensure that all the Qukes® that are grown can be enjoyed by consumers.
Perfection Fresh CEO, Michael Simonetta said: “We’re always looking for ways to minimise food waste across our supply chain. This partnership with Three Three’s helps us achieve our sustainability goals as well as giving consumers another opportunity to enjoy Qukes® in a new way.”
This range of dill flavoured Australian pickles have a bright, sharp style flavour with dill and peppercorns. With minimal sugar added, they are a healthy and delicious option to add to burgers and wraps. Perfect for entertaining and summer BBQ’s.
The new Three Three’s McAlpine pickles range is available on the shelves of Woolworths and Coles supermarkets. There are three products in the range – the first being the Australian pickled “dill” flavoured featuring Qukes® baby cucumbers. Other products in the range include Australian Gherkins Sweet Sliced and Australian Chilli Gherkins.
