Our Story.
At just 20 and 18 two brothers, bought their first orchard in 1939. Picking apples during the day, then packing each apple individually in tissue paper at night. Fast forward to today and over successive generations, that same amount of attention to detail has remained an integral part of the business.
Fresh Slice Foods currently operates the Orchards, Cold Storage and Packhouse facilities through to the processing factory which are all based in the Hawke's Bay. Through this, we can offer a unique advantage to fully control the supply from Orchard to Customer.
Thanks to the fertile soils and fruit-friendly climate of Hawke's Bay, our apples enjoy the best growing conditions possible. By combining generations of horticultural expertise with the best of technological innovation, some outstanding results have been produced.
Why Work For Us.
At Fresh Slice Foods, we are a family business preparing orchard to plate value added fruit products — from purées to diced apples — delivering in bulk to foodservice companies, healthcare & aged care across New Zealand & Australia.
But we’re more than just a processing plant. We’re a fast-moving, values-driven team on a mission to be the most effective value adders of fruit in New Zealand.
We’re growing, and we’re always looking for reliable, energetic people who take pride in doing things right — and doing them fast.
At Fresh Slice, we believe that adding value starts with our people. That means building a team that’s empowered, supported, and aligned with our core values:
