The Rombola Family has been farming for over fifty years, since they arrived in Australia in the 1950s from Calabria, Italy. They were part of a large group of migrants who helped transform Australia’s Riverina and surrounding areas into a dynamic, enterprising agricultural region. Today, the Rombola Family Farm sits on over 4,000 hectares of premium horticultural land in New South Wales and the Northern Territory. The company employs more than 300 seasonal contract employees and supplies produce to all capital cities across Australia.
