Our Story
Midlands Nutrition, established in 2002, is primarily focused on developing, producing and supplying high quality specialty oils to the global food, skincare, and health product sectors. Today, we specialise in natural nutritional oils and plant based super-foods rich in essential fatty acids such as Alpha-linolenic acid (ALA, Omega 3) and Gamma-linolenic acid (GLA).
Our product range comprises an extensive list of oils and food ingredients, with a focus on bulk nutritional oils. We closely integrate contract growing, product development, oil processing, and distribution to ensure that we efficiently deliver the highest product quality and service to our customers. All products are developed with the intent to benefit and promote health and well-being in today’s busy lifestyles.
We produce a wide range of specialty oils in our purpose-built premises, which are based in the agricultural heart of New Zealand. World-leading quality is our benchmark, in everything we do. Our commitment to food safety, and a focus on the highest quality standards, ensure we have complete traceability from the planted seed, right through to the final product.
We dedicate ourselves to providing healthy and nutritious products from natural sources to our customers. From consultation to formulation, conception to fulfilment, our emphasis on quality and attention to detail at every stage of the supply chain is second to none.
Delivering the best Plant Based Super Foods and Nutritional Oils
Midlands Nutrition is located in Ashburton, in the heart of the Canterbury Plains, in New Zealand's South Island. This position in the agricultural hub of New Zealand, offers the business access to some of the best quality seed grown throughout the country. And right here on our door step, the Canterbury Plains, the best Hemp and Flaxseed is produced.
Our seed is grown under contract in the Canterbury region, which has a unique soil and climate combination producing some of the world's best oil seeds. Our close working relationship with seed producers, Midlands Seed, means we can ensure that best practice is followed on farms, with a resultant guarantee of quality seed going into the presses.
This full traceability from farm to consumer, is very important particularly for our organic products. The location of our cold pressing Oil Extraction Facility is in close proximity to the seed producing location, allows Midlands Nutrition to press "to order", maximising the freshness and nutritional value of all our oils.
Midlands Nutrition provides naturally sourced healthy and nutritious products to our customers.
