First Australian manufacturing plant for Life Health Foods
The Life Health Foods (LHF) range of plant-based meal products is now being manufactured in a new 6000 m2 facility in Berkeley Vale, on the NSW Central Coast. The factory encompasses frozen, chilled and canning technologies.
The LHF factory was officially opened by Mrs Karen McNamara MP, Federal Member for Dobell.
“It is fantastic to be opening a new manufacturing facility here on the Central Coast which will provide a boost to employment opportunities for local residents,” McNamara said. “It is exciting to see innovative manufacturing deciding to call the Central Coast home. It demonstrates that the Central Coast is a region that can support manufacturing and builds upon the success of other major companies, including Sanitarium, a local employer of choice.”
Life Health Foods is the market leader in plant-based cuisine having acquired, in 2014, the market-leading Vegie Delights range, previously produced by Sanitarium Health & Wellbeing. It also launched plant-based brands into Australia, such as Bean Supreme and Naked Cuisine.
Employing more than 70 staff, LHF Australia is investing heavily in innovation and has set aside additional space within the factory for expansion and future growth opportunities.
