WHAT IS SOIL

FROM SOIL TO SHELF

SOIL is an incubator and launchpad for conscious, sustainable brands rooted in local ecosystems. Born from decades of supporting organic farming, community projects, and ethical business, SOIL gives ethical brands the infrastructure they need to thrive — from distribution and packaging to retail and storytelling.

Growth at SOIL is rooted in relationships, with farmers, makers, customers, and the broader local ecosystem. We prioritise ethical sourcing, sustainability, and community connection as core drivers of long-term success. Because a strong brand doesn’t just sell - it contributes.

SOIL connects conscious brands with established retail networks, beginning with Santos Organics and expanding into aligned wholesale partners. We help navigate ranging, pricing, and retail readiness so your product doesn’t just launch - it lands well. Our focus is long-term placement, not short-term listings.

We bring nearly 50 years of natural retail insight to help shape brands that resonate on shelf and online. From positioning and pricing strategy to storytelling and launch planning, we work alongside founders to refine what makes their product compelling. It’s practical guidance grounded in real-world retail experience.

SOIL provides access to warehousing, logistics, and packaging capabilities that reduce the burden on early-stage brands. Whether it’s repacking, storage, or scaling production systems, we help build operational foundations that are efficient and scalable. This allows founders to focus on product quality and brand growth.

CARING FOR OUR LOCAL COMMUNITY

We donated $1500 to The Returning, an Aboriginal-led not-for-profit organisation, governed by a majority Aboriginal, all women Board of Directors and team. The Returning runs 7 programs across the region focusing on Indigenous ways of relationality, reciprocity, care and connection. They support artists, elders, youth, pregnant women and families in our region, bringing our community back to Country for healing with culture.
