Blue Ribbon established a dual purpose processing facility at Brandon, just north of Ayr. It was officially opened in June 2012.

In 2014 we sold the facility to Sunrice and as part of the agreement with them we continue to utilise their pulse grading facility.

This enabled an exciting partnership between Sunrice and Blue Ribbon to promote and service specialist cropping in the Burdekin region.
