About Us
Essantis is one of Australia’s leading producers of plant based food and beverage ingredients, specialising in oat cereal, pulse based and animal nutrition products.
Who we are
With a rich history dating back to the 1970s, we have long been a trusted supplier with a strong and enduring reputation within the food industry in Australia.
From humble beginnings in regional Victoria we have grown and evolved the business, with expansion into oat cereal products over 15 years ago driving our transformation and propelling us into a national operation. More recently the development of our pulse protein and oat milk facilities highlights our continuing drive to innovate and strong focus on the production of high quality and sustainable Australian grown ingredients.
During our successful growth, we’ve stayed true to our values with a strong emphasis on developing and nurturing long term customer partnerships and close and supportive relationships with our growers, underpinned by a commitment to quality.
We believe in making a difference through the respect we show all people both inside and outside of our business, and by playing our part in providing healthy, safe and nutritious food to customers across Australia and around the world.
Our Commitment

Our customers demand consistency, reliability and delivery of the highest quality products, above all, and we take pride in exceeding their expectations.
We are wholeheartedly committed to our unwavering position on quality products, food safety and management systems, and striving for continuous improvement. It’s what we’ve built our reputation and our success on.
