Celebrating 50 Years of Feeding South East Queensland: The Mountain View Poultry Story

50 Years of Local Legacy

In 1975, what started as a small family-run poultry farm in South East Queensland laid the foundations for what would become one of the region’s most trusted local suppliers. Fifty years on, Mountain View Poultry stands as a cornerstone of the local food chain, known for reliability, quality, and deep-rooted partnerships with butchers, retailers, and distributors across Moreton Bay and the Sunshine Coast.

This is the story of how a small operation grew into a legacy of consistent supply, tailored service, and unwavering commitment to local business.

 

Built on Consistency from Day One

Mountain View was founded with a simple promise: provide fresh, locally grown poultry that businesses could rely on. That promise still holds true today.

From early on, the business focused on doing the basics better, such as showing up on time, delivering consistent quality, and listening to what customers actually needed. Over time, that approach earned loyalty not just from clients, but from their customers too. For many butchers and retailers, Mountain View Poultry didn’t just deliver stock; they helped build reputations.

 

Serving the Region We Call Home

Through five decades of growth, one thing has remained unchanged: our commitment to the South East Queensland community.

By focusing our operations locally, we’ve been able to reduce transport times, respond quickly to seasonal demand, and provide a level of service national suppliers often can’t match. Our customers know that when they call, they’re speaking to someone who knows their business, understands their priorities, and can offer real solutions, not just standard answers.

 

Partnering with Local Business…Not Just Supplying Them

As our customer base expanded from small butcheries to high-volume distributors and independent retailers, we stayed focused on partnership over transactions. That meant offering more than just product. It meant listening, adapting, and finding ways to meet specific needs with precision.

Whether it’s custom cuts, flexible order volumes, or proactive delivery adjustments, our tailored approach has become one of the most valued parts of working with Mountain View. It’s not just about meat, it’s about making our customers’ operations smoother, leaner, and more reliable.

 

A Team Built on Experience and Pride

Behind the business is a team with over 150 years of combined industry experience. Some have been with us for decades. Others are second-generation family members continuing the work started long ago.

That depth of knowledge means we’re not just moving boxes. We’re offering insights, providing support, and solving real problems, often before they arise. We take pride in being more than a supplier; we’re a part of the team, and a steady hand in a busy industry.

 

What’s Changed and What Hasn’t

Over the last 50 years, technology, customer preferences, and industry expectations have evolved. But our core principles haven’t changed:

  • Reliability over rhetoric: We deliver on what we say.

  • Local first: We grow and supply in South East Queensland.

  • Real partnerships: We tailor solutions to fit our clients, not the other way around.

  • People matter: From long-standing staff to new retail partners, we value relationships as much as results.

These values have seen us through economic shifts, industry changes, and decades of growth, and they’ll guide us into the future.

 

 

Thank You for 50 Years of Trust

To our customers, past and present, thank you.

To our team, our suppliers, and everyone who’s played a role in our journey, we’re here because of you.

We don’t take this milestone lightly. 50 years in business isn’t just about longevity. It’s about showing up, staying true, and continually earning trust, year after year, delivery after delivery.

 

Looking Ahead

While we’re proud of where we’ve come from, we’re even more focused on what’s next. Our eyes are on the future, continuing to lead with consistency, refining our services, and strengthening our role as a trusted partner in the SEQ food supply chain.

Because after 50 years, one thing is clear… We’re just getting started.
