We have been searching for years now.   We stock the Always Fresh and Fabulous brands because at least they are Australian companies and pay taxes in Australia. We have rated the canned fish products as (A) = Australian owned, imported product.   If you can suggest another brand that would be more suitable for us to stock, I would really appreciate your help.   We have a rating system for the products on our website: AAAA = Australian owned, Australian made from Australian materials or ingredients.
