About Us
The Company
With over sixty years experience in the horticultural industry, Sumich has established a strong commitment to delivering the freshest produce with the highest quality to both the domestic and export markets.
Sumich had simple beginnings over half a century ago when it started its first market garden in 1944 in Spearwood, Western Australia. Within six years, it had moved into wholesaling and established a thriving export business supplying fresh produce to the Royal Navy in Singapore. The business continued to expand with considerable portions of land acquired at Mandogalup, where Sumich’s headquarters are still located.
Through years of experience, Sumich has gained a worldwide reputation in the fresh produce industry. As a grower, wholesaler and exporter, Sumich is a leader in its field.

Sumich also owns 400 hectares and manages more than 1000 hectares of olive trees in the Moore River Region. With a new state of the art olive oil processing plant located in the heart of more than 800,000 surrounding olive trees, Sumich processes olive oil from over 10 surrounding farms in the Moore River Region.
