Our technical experts and quality assurance teams maintain these systems and continuously monitor raw materials and workspace hygiene. Their care and attention to detail ensure our products remain of the highest quality throughout their shelf-life.
We use high-quality and only the finest cuts of pork, beef, chicken and turkey in our products.
Meat
We use D’Orsogna family’s authentic blend of herbs and spices – each recipe chosen carefully to highlight the flavour of the meat.
Herbs & Spices
We use traditional, time-honoured processes to cure our Italian-style delicacies and naturally wood-smoking for cooking and adding flavour.
Time
We use only the highest quality ingredients from trusted suppliers in Australia and overseas in our flavoursome products.
Attention
Country of origin
Most food products for retail sale in Australia require a Country of Origin Label (CoOL). It identifies the percentage of ingredients that are sourced from overseas. An example of the three-component graphic is shown here:
The kangaroo-in-a-triangle symbol shows that the product is made in Australia.
A shaded bar chart shows the minimum percentage of Australian ingredients, calculated from the weight of the ingredients at the start of production.
A label states whether the food was grown, produced, or made in Australia, and for “made in” products, it also shows the percentage of Australian ingredients.
At D’Orsogna, we use both Australian and imported ingredients to create consistently high-quality and flavoursome products at the best possible price.
Pork is very popular in Australia. A little known fact is while our pork producers play an essential part in the Australian agricultural industry, they do not produce enough pork to satisfy local demand. To meet this domestic demand, meat processors like D’Orsogna import raw materials to bridge the gap.
D’Orsogna only sources Pork from Australia, and the Australian Government approved Pork suppliers in North America and Western Europe. The Australian Department of Agriculture governs imported meat quality and standards.
