Today, brothers Mick and Ben Hewitt lead the vision and development of supplying market leading organic and high-claims products that meet the demanding specifications of large, fast-paced supermarket retail chains, foodservice operators and wholesalers.
We champion regenerative organic agriculture, passionately commit to animal welfare, actively support the communities we serve, and lead the world in biodiversity and carbon management practices. For decades, Hewitt has proudly supplied many of the world’s largest food wholesalers and retailers, earning numerous industry awards and recognitions for our efforts.
Our retail brand portfolio includes Cleaver’s Organic Meat, the most trusted organic meat brand in Australia.
