When Deane Hewitt left Parramatta in 1904 to work as a Jackaroo in Moura, QLD he would have had no concept of the family journey he was beginning. And it’s safe to say he would be staggered at how the world, and the agricultural industry would change over the next century.
When Gunny and Loye Hewitt purchased Ryhddings in Moura in 1948, they couldn’t have imagined that today their family business would grow to over 5.6 million acres with over 200,000 livestock.
And when Colin and Linda Hewitt formally founded the Hewitt Cattle Company in 1987, everyone was beginning to understand the delicate balance between feeding the world, and nurturing the system that provides the food.
Today that balance is more precarious than ever – it’s why our purpose is to ‘feed the world with a system that lasts forever’. We’re delivering on this by applying a simple approach: we treat animals well, treat people well, and treat the land well. All backed by the most rigorous external certification process.
