Gavin Scurr Managing Director
Gavin Scurr’s passion for providing his consumers with the ultimate fruit eating experience has earned him tremendous respect from Australia’s major retailers – not to mention the respect of discerning consumers.

A third generation pineapple farmer, Gavin recognised the need to move from traditional business methods as he steered his family company to the respect of the horticultural industry.

Stephen moved with his family to manage the development of farms and packing facilities in the region. return to top of page
