ABOUT US

Founded in 1990, David Russo Pty Ltd has grown into one of Australia's most trusted fresh produce suppliers, built on experience, integrity, and a hands-on approach.

From day one, David Healey has remained at the helm and personally oversees every part of the operation. That hands-on leadership continues to shape the business today, with a focus on quality, strong relationships, and long-term growth. Now, the next generation is stepping into the fold, with David’s daughter Nicole supporting the business across category management, commercial operations, and compliance. Her involvement reflects a natural passing down of knowledge, driving the next chapter of growth while staying true to the values that have defined the business for decades.

Over the past three decades, David Russo Pty Ltd has built a reliable and far-reaching national network of growers founded on genuine partnership. We operate our own farms in Bundaberg and South Australia and work closely with a network of strategically aligned growers to meet customer demand with consistency and scale.

We currently supply a wide range of fresh produce to Australia’s high-end retailers and fastidious providers, offering flexibility and tailored solutions. With the ability to service any distribution centre along the East Coast within 24 hours of order, we’re proud to be known for reliability and responsiveness.

Our presence within Sydney Markets gives us daily contact with independent retailers, growers and wholesalers. These connections keep us close to the ground and offer valuable insights into real-time market trends and help us stay ahead of the curve. It also opens up broader opportunities for total crop utilisation, allowing us to match second-grade lines with the right buyers. This approach helps minimise waste, maximise value for our growers, and maintain a more sustainable supply chain.

David Russo Pty Ltd continues to invest in the future of Australian horticulture, partnering with peak industry bodies like Applied Horticultural Research (AHR) to support research and innovation.
