Ceres Organics Organic Pulled Jackfruit

Ceres Organics Organic Pulled Jackfruit is a plant-based meat alternative made from young jackfruit, known for its shredded texture that mimics pulled pork. The brand was established in 1982 in Auckland, New Zealand, starting as a small organic food co-op and evolving into one of the largest organic food distributors in Australasia.

The product is primarily sourced and manufactured in Sri Lanka, where jackfruit is an indigenous crop grown using sustainable organic farming practices. This ensures the fruit is processed quickly after harvest to maintain its quality and texture while supporting local agriculture.

Today, Ceres Organics remains an independently owned entity in New Zealand. The ultimate owner company, Ceres Enterprises Ltd, oversees the brand's commitment to social and environmental responsibility, maintaining a strong presence across New Zealand and Australia as a pioneer in the organic health food sector.
