Saying thank you Aussie style 

Perth Markets is Western Australia’s only wholesale fruit and vegetable market. Operating from a purpose-built Site on 51 hectares at Canning Vale, Perth Markets provides the critical link between growers, wholesalers, retailers and the fresh produce supply chain.  

We are lucky to have 10-15 regular donors and 30+ donors who give when they can. The Perth Markets play a key role in helping us connect with growers and rescuing their produce. Every day, we average six pallets – bananas, cauliflower, broccoli, apples – you name it. Mondays are extra special, as we scoop up what hasn’t found a home after the weekend markets. 

We love to hold our regular sausage sizzles on-site at Perth Markets to thank those that support us and to spread the word about what we do here at Foodbank to those who may not yet know.  

Last month saw us serve up a sausage sizzle event to rival Bunnings – with more than 100 Perth Markets staff and volunteers taking advantage of a very Aussie breakfast!  

Thank you to Goodman Fielder for supplying the buns, the Great British Sausage Co for the delicious pork sausages and West Coast Meats for beef sausages and Australian Produce Brokers for the onions which top off any perfect sausage sizzle.

We couldn’t do what we do with you, thank you Perth Market Group and Market West for your much needed support year in and year out.

This is how we help to get meals to those who need it most.
