The demand for high-quality cheese across Asia and the Pacific regions has led to innovations in food preservation, enabling products to reach these markets with their flavor and texture uncompromised. One such innovation is IQF (Individually Quick Frozen) technology, a process that locks in the cheese's inherent characteristics, allowing it to withstand long-distance transportation without sacrificing quality. For professional kitchens and discerning consumers alike, IQF cheese offers a solution that meets both logistical demands and flavor expectations. This process is especially vital for renowned PGI (Protected Geographical Indication) cheeses from Europe, such as buffalo mozzarella and raclette, which bring distinct tastes and textures emblematic of their origins.

Areas with a Mediterranean climate, such as parts of France, Spain, Italy, and certain regions in Australia, provide the perfect conditions for truffle farming.

Truffles, the prized fungi known for their distinctive aroma and luxurious appeal, require specific environmental conditions to thrive as they grow in a symbiotic relationship with the roots of certain trees, such as hazel and oak. The conditions necessary for this relationship to flourish are found in only a few places around the world, and Australia has proven to be an ideal environment for truffle cultivation.
