Grocery shopping has become an increasingly frustrating task. Whether your online delivery order has been packed with less than ideal substitutes or the produce aisle is seriously lacking your favourite fruit and vegetables, just know you’re not alone.
Save yourself a disappointing trip to the supermarket and place an order with these local heroes who will deliver fresh, quality fruits, vegetables and other essentials right to your door.

Having supplied Perth cafes with fresh produce for over 30 years, the guys at Nicolaou Fresh know what they’re doing when it comes to picking and packing the best fruit and vegetables for delivery. Their seasonal fruit and vegetable boxes are priced at either $50 for 1-2 people or $75 for a family-sized box, and they’ve got everything you need from bananas and apples to cucumber and avocados.

Coogee Common
In the brief time between Coogee Common opening its doors and COVID-19 hitting, their menu was built around showcasing their own harvested fresh daily produce grown in their amazing garden, so it’s no surprise that they’ve jumped on board the fresh produce delivery bandwagon. Their produce box is $70 and includes a huge assortment of garden-fresh carrots, capsicums, cucumbers and more.
