The business is jointly owned by our membership of more than 700 farmer-members across Western Australia.

Along with superior financial returns, our members enjoy access to key industry and market data including research programs, industry best practices, world-class processing facilities, and confidence in the commercial relationships of WAMMCO’s global customer base.
