Food Service
Gourmania produces a diverse range of products designed specifically for Foodservice application. We offer individual food components through to finished dishes, dietary-specific options, ready meals and other value-added products.
Gourmania is known for its specialist expertise in producing all natural, Australian seafood stocks and broths. We supply base stocks through to finished soups and sauces to customers across Australia and internationally.
Created by chefs for chefs – Gourmania understands the importance of using only the freshest produce and quality, natural ingredients when it comes to creating foodservice products that consistently hit the mark. We source from Australian growers and suppliers wherever possible. We do not add artificial colours, preservatives or flavour enhancers to our products.
Reliability and convenience – Our Foodservice products are batch consistent on taste profile, appearance, clarity and consistency. We offer cook/chill, frozen and extended shelf-life products, across a variety of sizes for total convenience and to help our customers reduce their onsite food costs, staff costs and wastage.
Contract Manufacturing
Contract manufacturing is a significant part of Gourmania’s operation – it has been for many years. Our contract manufacturing team brings experience and skill to the table to create products for foodservice, process manufacture, retail and export. Working closely with each customer, we transform food concepts into real products that taste great, are food industry compliant and are commercially viable.
Gourmania can replicate your proprietary recipe to manufacture on your behalf, or we can collaborate to produce something new and that meets your exact requirements. Gourmania’s modern, HACCP-accredited facility enables full product traceability. We manufacture relatively small batches right through to mass production. We are nimble, working quickly and efficiently to provide customers with speed-to-market benefits.
