Booma pristine produce
Owner manager
I started this business to help my parents, by using their farm grown products and promoting it from Coffs
harbour to Brisbane.
This included cold calling, attending markets and festivals.
Product information was a necessity as well as being able to sell the product to people who had never tried it before and had preconceived ideas.
Being a new business I had to deal with all start up procedures and practices and learn as I went along. This
involved everything from office work, printing and design, and designing promotional material as well as writing
safe food procedures.
