About us

We're a locally owned and operated company whose aim is to help our customers succeed.

Sherratt Ingredients is a family-owned and run business, started in 1986 by Chris Sherratt and now under the leadership of Chris’ son, Duncan.

From humble beginnings as a supplier of vital wheat gluten to becoming a major player in New Zealand’s specialty food ingredients and blending industry, our journey has been one of self-determination and a desire to contribute to the continuing growth and success of the New Zealand food industry.

We partner with food, beverage and pet food manufacturers across the country to provide high-quality specialty ingredients sourced from leading global suppliers, as well as trusted bespoke solutions produced locally at our facilities.

With a growing team of over 60 people, we continue to innovate, evolve and expand our offerings to support the success of our customers.

Local facilities

Our purpose-built premises in Hobsonville, Auckland are market-leading with state-of-the-art product development kitchens, quality control labs, and pilot facilities for small-scale production trials.

It’s also where we manufacture and blend solutions for customers. With two manufacturing sites in Hobsonville, we produce our blends locally – offering both halal-certified and non-halal options to meet your requirements.

Quality and food safety are a priority for us. Our facilities are BRCG certified with an AA rating, so you can trust everything we produce and supply meets the strictest standards.

We work hard to make sure your products are delivered when and where they are required. We are supported in this by multiple warehousing facilities based around New Zealand. With strong partner relationships, smooth operations and everyone in the supply chain working together, we make it happen.

Local technical expertise and support

Across the business, our focus is on being easy to work with by providing the best service, options and support.

Our team of experienced sales and product experts work alongside our customers to provide trusted advice, support and insights.

When you need to refine, innovate or create, our local team of food technologists have the specialised knowledge in ingredient applications and formulations, and a genuine passion for problem-solving, to transform your food ideas into reality.

Being local also means we’re there when it counts. We’re able to respond to requests and troubleshoot issues in a timely manner, helping you keep things moving forward with confidence and ease.
