Finalist — Exporter of the Year · 2026 Horticulture Awards for Excellence · Winner announced at the Gala Dinner, Adelaide, June 4
The Avolution is Australia's premium avocado grower network — building long-term supply partnerships with domestic retailers who demand quality, consistency, and a grower they can trust through any season.
The Avolution was founded on a single conviction: that Australian avocado growers deserve a model built on transparency, and that retailers deserve a supply partner built on discipline.
Led by CEO and co-owner Antony Allen and grower owners Daryl and Sally Boardman, The Avolution operates on a return-to-grower model — meaning growers are paid on actual market returns, not estimated advance prices. That alignment creates accountability across the entire supply chain, from orchard to shelf.
With 120+ grower partners nationwide and proven supply credentials, we're attending Hort Connections 2026 as finalists for Exporter of the Year — and to build long-term relationships with the domestic retail category teams who are serious about premium, consistent avocado supply.
"Our growers grow it. We connect it to the category teams who need it."
— Antony Allen, CEOFrom Woolworths to IGA, we understand that category managers need more than a good avocado. They need a partner who delivers consistently at volume, with transparency on pricing and zero surprises on compliance.
120+ grower partners across Australia's key avocado regions. Supply breadth that reduces single-source risk and ensures continuity across seasons.
Our return-to-grower model means prices are tied to actual market performance — no inflated estimates, no opaque margins. Clear, honest numbers.
HARPS certification and Fresh Care compliance maintained across the supply chain. Audit-ready documentation as standard.
Premium Hass avocados managed through a single, accountable network. Consistent quality grading across every consignment, every season.
No intermediaries between The Avolution and the growers. Better visibility on crop conditions, timing, and volume forecasting.
We don't chase short-term volume. Our model is built for long-term supply partnerships — which means retailers can plan with confidence.
Antony founded The Avolution to change how Australian avocado growers connect with markets. At HC26 he's available to discuss domestic supply strategy, grower network capacity, and category partnerships.
