About

Founded in 1974 by Hector McCallum who immigrated from Scotland and was originally attracted to New Zealand by its pastoral environment rich in natural resources, and a climate blessed with long sunshine hours, mild winters and high rainfall.

This unique climate and physical environment coupled with clean, pollution-free atmosphere and water promotes natural food products of unsurpassed quality and taste.

The company has progressed since it's inception in 1974 to an outstanding international supplier of processed meat products.

As one of Australasia's largest producers of further processed meat products, McCallum Industries currently exports over 75 percent of its production around the world.

Competing in over 25 export markets, the company enjoys dominant market share in many Pacific rim countries.

The company's manufactured food products strictly conform to both New Zealand and USDA food regulations and are certified for export by the New Zealand Food Safety Authority.

Manufacturing capabilities incorporate glass containers, flexible pouches and a large number of canning lines able to pack can sizes from 100g to 3kg.

An approved HACCP quality system is a critical part of the QA program and is your assurance of outstanding quality and McCallum Industries' absolute commitment to superior levels of service and performance.

From an initial emphasis on corned beef processing, the company now processes over 100 food products encompassing spreads and baby food.

Access to New Zealand's broad range of high quality primary produce in tandem with contemporary manufacturing facilities and a creative development team, has enabled further refinement and a broadening of the company's products and capabilities.

The company's stable range of corned meat brands are rich in history and date back to the 1930's and include Palm, Salisbury, Monarch and Melrose.

These brands are marketed within their respective operational areas, independently or in partnership with the local distributor as part of an adoptive strategy for the benefit of the brand or the customer.
