The company supplied about three-quarters of the potatoes sold in the Australian Woolworths supermarket chain. Oakville Produce also ran the biggest onion supply operation in Australia.

In 2013, the Chinese Chevalier Group acquired a 70% interest in Oakville Produce through its associated company, CAAM Limited.
