About
Welcome to Mercado
Mercado is a dynamic new food supply business founded by a passionate husband and wife team. With over 30 years of collective experience in sales, distribution, branding, marketing, operations and finance, they bring a wealth of knowledge to the table.
As owners of a small-batch condiment business located in Burleigh Heads, the Mercado founders have firsthand experience in creating, developing and nurturing a brand from the ground up. It was through this journey that they quickly realised a need for a dedicated supply company, that understood and catered for local artisans that simply lacked the time and resources required to go-to-market and stay-in-market……so Mercado was born.
Mercado aims to showcase the very best of Australian-made products, to celebrate the cultural diversity and bridge the gap between the artisan and the retailer.
As a brand when you partner with Mercado, you don’t just gain access to a quality network of premium retailers, you also gain personalised support and guidance from Mercado’s founders, who are committed to helping brands thrive and reach their full potential.
As a retailer, think of Mercado as a gateway or one-stop shop, to a curated portfolio of emerging brands, that are best in class and carefully distributed. We will work with you to ensure our products succeed, because we understand that the independent retailer is essential to the overall success of this industry.
Whether you are a small batch producer, buyer, shop owner, or you simply have an idea that is keeping you up at night, please get in touch with us!
