About us
Our journey began in Arthur Shoppee's backyard in the 1960s with a love of flavour and family. Today, that passion has made us Australia’s leading duck producer. As a vertically integrated agribusiness, we are known for innovation and quality, making us the top choice for retailers, manufacturers, and caterers nationwide. Luv-a-Duck is proudly 100% Australian and family-owned, based in the Wimmera region of Victoria. Our mission is to put duck on every dish. Offering a versatile range of products, including the nation's only ready-to-eat cooked chilled range, as well as fresh and frozen options, Luv-a-Duck makes duck an easy and delicious choice for everyone. In addition to premium products, Luv-a-Duck operates a cooking school in Port Melbourne, teaching home cooks and professionals alike how to prepare duck with confidence and creativity. Our classes showcase the versatility of duck, inspiring participants to incorporate it into everyday meals. With distribution centres across Australia, we ensure our products are accessible nationwide. Internationally, our duck features on prestigious 5-star menus in Asia, the Pacific Islands, and the Middle East, boosting our global reputation. As a founding member of the Australian Duck Meat Association, we are committed to setting the benchmark for quality, sustainability, and community engagement, aiming to make duck a staple on every menu. At Luv-a-Duck, we believe in more than just producing great food—we support our local communities. We contribute to the local economy through employment, supporting regional suppliers, and sponsoring community initiatives. By maintaining sustainable practices and a deep connection to the land, we ensure our products not only taste great but create a positive impact for future generations. From our table to yours, we are dedicated to delivering the highest quality duck while giving back to the communities that shape our story.
