With around 700 beekeepers in our family, we’re proud to continue a tradition that began over 70 years ago with two beekeeping brothers. In 1953 these brothers, Tim & Bert Smith, set the foundations for our company with strong values to support Australian beekeepers – values that still drive us to this day.
Australian-owned and operated, with sites located in Richlands, Qld, Maryborough, Vic, and Bayswater, WA, our team are focussed on packing and marketing quality Australian honey.
Our company also remains committed to strengthening the Australian beekeeping businesses that choose to partner with us. One of the ways we do this is through our Capilano Beekeeper Rewards Program. This program offers exciting discounts and deals on services, equipment and merchandise for our beekeepers.
We're buzzed to welcome Ecrotek, a leading beekeeping equipment provider, as our most recent program partner to offer beekeepers exclusive deals on selected hiveware, bee nutrition and Varroa controls. We are also proud to continue working with our longest-standing program partner, Steritech, to provide our beekeepers with a competitive rate on the irradiation of materials to enhance biosecurity. This service is presently the most effective method of eliminating pathogens and pests from equipment to promote healthier, happier and more productive beehives.
