Mandolé Orchard is an Australian family-owned almond grower and producer based in Griffith, NSW, where generations of farming knowledge meet a modern approach to plant-based food.

The story starts in the Riverina, where father-and-son growers Denis and Dean represent the family’s third and fourth generations of farming. Their almonds are grown on the family orchard, then transformed into a range that keeps provenance front and centre. Mandolé’s products began with recipes from Tootie’s Kitchen, before years of development led to the launch of the family’s fresh almond milk in 2019.

Today, Mandolé produces Australia’s first and only single-origin almond milk, alongside almond butter, almond dips, almonds and almond flour. The milk range is made from whole, activated almonds blended with purified water, with selected varieties designed for everyday drinking, coffee and flavoured occasions. The brand also avoids gums and thickeners in its almond milk, helping the natural flavour and texture of the almonds do the work.

That attention to quality has earned Mandolé recognition at major food awards. In 2024, products across its almond milk, butter and almond ranges received nine gold medals and one silver medal at the Sydney Royal Fine Food Show, while its Smooth Unsalted Almond Butter was named Champion Plant Based Product.

Its farming approach also supports the story on shelf, with precision irrigation, recycled manufacturing water, soil-focused practices, recyclable packaging and solar power used across orchard and manufacturing operations to reduce environmental impact over time.

For retailers, Mandolé offers more than another dairy-free option. It brings a clear Australian provenance story, premium positioning and a family-grown point of difference across multiple categories. From the fridge to the spreads aisle and entertaining cabinet, the range gives shoppers an easy way to discover Australian almonds in fresh, versatile formats, backed by traceability, sustainability and genuine grower expertise.
