About
ACO Certification Ltd, formerly Australian Certified Organic, is Australia's largest certifier for organic and biodynamic produce, with more than 2,000 certified operators and over 25 years in the organic industry. It is headquartered in Brisbane, with an additional office in Adelaide.
ACO certifies farms, processors, retailers, restaurants, wholesalers, farmers markets and exporters against standards including ACOS, EU, COSMOS, JAS (Japan) and NOP (USA). Many organic meat producers listed in directories carry ACO certification. ACO itself is a certification body, not a meat store, so it sits outside the retail focus of this directory and has been flagged for review.
