Fresh Produce
Pooling

Right Crate, Right Place, Right Time. Simple.

Our reusable produce containers (RPCs) get products safely from farm to warehouse to retailers. And, we make it simple, flexible, and frictionless.

We believe no resource should end up in landfill. When an RPC reaches end-of-life, we recycle it. Because on a finite planet, we’re building an infinite loop.

Fresh Produce Pooling

Efficient. Circular.
Retail-Ready

Viscount’s closed-loop pooling system powers major supermarkets across Australia; streamlining logistics while slashing waste. Our reusable plastic crates (RPCs) arrive washed, sanitised, and ready to load. Once produce hits the shelves, the crates return to us for cleaning and redistribution. No hassle, no waste, just smart, sustainable movement.
