Our most important success factor is our employees, and we invest in their development and well being, with seasonal staff returning year after year to join our family. By supporting local oyster farmers, we help stabilise the local economy and provide longevity within the industry.
Environmental
Through collaboration with the Department of Fisheries and other third parties Raspberry Point Oysters is committed to continuously assess and minimize our environmental impact and help reduce invasive species. We organize shore clear ups to help preserve our coastline and protect our marine life, whilst in the water our oysters are natures purifiers, removing nitrogen from the water and providing cleaner safer water for the planet’s future. Raspberry Point supports our hard workers by providing car shares to help save costs and reduce our emission’s. Wherever possible we use secondary raw materials to aid the circular economy and are closing in on our target to have 100% recyclable packaging.
