Harvey Fresh

Produced in Harvey, the Harvey Fresh brand is an icon of the Western Australian dairy and juice industry.

Since its establishment in 1986, Harvey Fresh has taken great pride in offering a range of quality milk, dairy products, and fruit juice for everyone to enjoy.

Herds of contented cows graze in lush green, healthy pastures. Rich soils, abundant rain, and crystal clear sunshine ensure one of the most pristine milk and citrus-producing environments in the world. Fresh milk is collected daily from carefully selected farms to ensure unmatched freshness and quality.

Head to Super IGA or Parton’s IGA in Harvey to savour Harvey Fresh’s flavours. Unfortunately, Harvey Fresh is not open to visitors.

Meet Joe Sorgiovanni

After emigrating from Italy in 1928, Joe Sorgiovanni planted his first Valencia orange tree on the banks of the Harvey River.

With hard work and determination, the Sorgiovanni orchards evolved into a standalone business, Harvey Fresh, which became one of Western Australia’s most significant milk and juice processors and largest dairy exporter.

Parmalat (owned by French dairy giant Lactalis) acquired the company in 2014. Lactalis Group is the world’s largest fresh dairy company, a third-generation, French family-owned business with over 250 production sites and 80,000 employees across 94 countries. It continues to make the Harvey Fresh products West Australians love.

The Sorgiovanni family now raise cattle and operate vineyards in the area. In 1999, the winery business transitioned from vineyards to wine production under the Harvey River Estate label.
