AvoFresh has just launched Classic Guacamole, its first guacamole product in its range, made with cold pressed avocado, onion, chilli, coriander, lime and sea salt.

AvoFresh Classic Guacamole is made on the De Paoli family farm just outside Bundaberg, Queensland, from hand-picked Australian avocados.

It comes packaged in a resealable tub, is vegan friendly, gluten free, dairy free and contains no artificial colours or flavours.

The De Paoli family has been farming for more than 50 years in the Bundaberg and Childers region of Queensland. AvoFresh was created in 2010, when father and son team, David and Trent De Paoli saw an opportunity to provide lovers of avocado with a convenient and reliable alternative.

David De Paoli said the AvoFresh secret is in the way the fruit is processed.

“When our avocados are at the perfect ripeness, we peel and pit them. We then use a unique cold pressed, high-pressure technology to deliver AvoFresh products which allows us to retain the fresh natural taste and texture without additives, artificial flavours or colours,” De Paoli said.

AvoFresh Classic Guacamole is available in 160g tubs, for $5.50 and can be found in Woolworths and independent supermarkets across Australia.

Packaging News

Australia's environment ministers have declared packaging reform urgent and named soft plastics as an initial priority, but offered no firm timetable or regulatory commitments. SPSA has welcomed the soft plastics focus, while Boomerang Alliance and WMRR have raised concerns about the lack of concrete action.

Economic analysis commissioned by SPSA estimates national recycling reforms could deliver up to $278m in net productivity gains and stimulate up to $2.6b in capital investment each year.

A cross-sector open letter is urging national leaders to agree on a pathway for regulated producer responsibility schemes at the September Environment Ministers Meeting.
