Keeping our people and food safe
At the Pure Food Co., the health and well-being of our customers is our top priority and we want to ensure that our food and people are safe. We have a number of strict food safety controls in place to keep our products safe, including pasteurising at temperatures that prevent outbreaks of viruses, automated sealing of product and sanitary handling.
Our nutritionally fortified purees are a convenient meal option as they have a shelf life of 30 days in the refrigerator. They require minimum preparation and are ready to serve, meaning less hands and less chance of infection.
We also place significant importance in continuing to make our product available. We ensure that our highly nutritious fortified purees reach those who need them the most and support them in their well-being.
In light of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak we have undertaken a care initiative to support older people in our communities. We are providing 400 Care Packages for New Zealand’s elderly at an affordable price of just $10 NZD including delivery. We care about our elderly and this initiative aims to improve their nutrition and hydration to support a healthy immune system, which is crucial at this time. See Care Package product here.

Who is Pure Food for?
Vulnerable people like Bob
Bob is 79 years old and lives at home on his own. He has difficulty swallowing and as a result has been eating less as it is getting more difficult for him. This has meant he is now losing weight, fatigues easily and his family are concerned.
After weight-loss surgery
Judy is 46 years old and has recently had bariatric surgery – gastric sleeve surgery for weight loss. To aid her recovery post the operation she needs high protein pureed food that is a safe texture and tastes great.
Healthy people like Phil
Phil and his wife Nancy are both active, enjoying shared time with friends & family. They need food with extra nutrition to ensure they can both live life to its fullest. They love the convenience of soups and smoothies made from our fortified purees.

Customer Testimonials
“One of our more difficult residents (a fussy eater) who is on a texture modified diet stood up at the residents meeting and thanked the kitchen for the new puree food.
