About Us
My journey for good food began when I became a mother of 4 kids. Running around feeling tired, run down and constantly worried about the family’s health.
The search for a solution led me to look at our diet, where I believed good health should start with good food.
After the research, consultations with health specialists, and coming to an understanding of everything I wanted to change. It wasn’t always easy to get my hands on the foods I was after. Driving across town, shipping it in from different locations or just the disappointment finding once I got the product home that I had overlooked it was full of sugar or additives.
I imagined a store that I could trust to have the best ingredients in one place. I wanted New Zealand made or Fairtrade & Organic where possible and I wanted it to be easy to find just the foods I wanted for me, and my family.
My partner Paul was up for the challenge, and with his IT skills, together we created it. Welcome to Food Compass. We love what we do and hope you do too.
