Our Story
Founded in 2011 by our family in Sydney, Australia DJ&A's story is one of relentless pursuit of excellence, where snacking meets innovation. Every bite is a testament to our commitment to making snacking an awesome and wholesome experience. When we started our journey over a decade ago, we predominantly sold and distributed popular beverages and snacks that were on the market. Amongst that time we also had a few of our very own products, one being our unique Stripped Coconut Water that became popular due to it having real pieces of coconut. As we grew we realised our passion lay in creating snacks rather than just distributing them.
Through our beginnings we noticed this gap on the market and we were committed to making a change. Thus we began our journey with Vegetable Crisps using a superior cooking method, vacuum cooking. This was a wonderful improvement to the typical deep fried chips and snacks that were found in the market. Through years of experimentation we perfected our signature Veggie Crisps which quickly became a customer favourite. We noticed that it was a common occurrence for our customers to be eagerly looking for the Mushrooms in the bag so we decided to add another product to our range, this is now known as our highly acclaimed and award winning Shiitake Mushroom Crisps. We have come a long way from our humble beginnings with over 100 products added to our range but we are continuously dedicated to our values of producing high quality products, creativity and innovation that elevates the snacking experience to another level.
Our Mission
Since day one our goal has been to revolutionise snacking with our commitment to produce better-for-you products that don't compromise on taste. Through our determination for innovation, creativity and excellence in quality we don't settle for the ordinary and continuously push the boundaries in the snacking industry. We aspire to create products that have never been seen before. Our viral and sensational Pickle-Licious Crisps are one of our revolutionary products that are a true testament to our passion and dedication.
We search the world for ingredients, collaborate with talented chefs and use cutting-edge technology to craft products that are seriously amazing. By using vacuum cooking and freeze drying as two of our most used cooking and preservation methods, we maintain their delicious flavour, preserve their natural goodness and unlock an impressive crunch. Quality is our nature and innovation is our excellence. We are here to make snacking, more exciting, better for you and equally as delicious.
