Metro Mushrooms was established in 1992 and operated as a small sole trading business by the original owners. Paul Sassine purchased Metro Mushrooms in 1997 and located to the Sydney Markets. Through good management practices, adopting QA systems and improving supply chain management for customers, the company experienced a 100% annual growth over 4 continuous years. Today Metro has become a leader in the management of the mushroom industry. Six years ago the premises were upgraded to operate as a 24-hour temperature managed facility and currently remain the only such facility on the East Coast of Australia.
Metro Mushrooms' focus on product quality, shelf life and food safety programmes, have ensured that all contracted growers pack to Metro Mushrooms stringent specifications and present only the best products for their customers. In recent times Metro Mushrooms has taken evolutionary steps to control the supply chain. This required the acquisition of three mushroom farms. Metro is now able to supervise all aspects of the supply chain.
