Our Philosophy

Peninsula Gourmet Co has been proudly sharing the best of Australian food and wine with the rest of the country since 2008. We bring together the finest artisan producers and suppliers from across Australia, offering a wide range of bespoke hampers and personalized gift boxes that reflect the incredible diversity and quality of local craftsmanship. Supporting small, local businesses is at the heart of our mission, and it’s central to everything we do.

As trusted purveyors of gourmet food, wine, and specialty gifts, Peninsula Gourmet Co is committed to showcasing Australia’s most loved, new, and unique products. Our online store offers a carefully curated selection of gifts and hampers for every occasion, and our must-visit retail shop, nestled in the heart of the Mornington Peninsula, invites both locals and visitors to experience the best of what Australia has to offer.

In 2020, we traded our corporate careers for a new life on the Mornington Peninsula. The stunning natural beauty of the region immediately felt like home, and in 2021, we had the incredible opportunity to take over the business formerly known as Hamper Yourself/Peninsula Gourmet Emporium as a husband and wife team. We’ve always had a passion for exceptional food and wine, but more importantly, we feel a deep commitment to supporting small and local enterprises across Australia. After all, small businesses are the backbone of our economy, driving growth, innovation, and community connection.

Since taking over Peninsula Gourmet Co, we’ve made it our mission to carry the rich heritage of the business forward while building upon it with new ideas and initiatives. We are focused on providing personalized and bespoke gift solutions that reflect our customers’ unique brand values. Whether you’re looking to create a customized corporate hamper, a one-of-a-kind gift box, or a tailored experience, we have the expertise to bring your vision to life.

Today, we’re proud to support local suppliers from all corners of Australia, ensuring that every product we offer is produced in a socially and environmentally responsible way. In line with our commitment to sustainability, we’ve made it a priority to reduce our carbon footprint and use sustainable packaging for all our hampers and gift boxes.

But we don’t just want to give back through our products — we’re also passionate about giving back to the community. Our PGCo Giving program reinvests in local initiatives that support children, youth, and future generations across Australia. Soon, our customers will be able to contribute to this cause with every purchase, making it easier than ever to support meaningful change while shopping with us.

By partnering with local businesses and staying true to our values, we aim to build a socially conscious business that benefits both the community and the environment. Whether you're near or far, we invite you to experience a slice of Australia’s finest food, wine, and artisanal creations through our hampers and gifts. We’d love for you to join us in supporting small businesses and helping shape a brighter future for our country.
