Dedicated to modernising Australian grain systems
Alvan Blanch has been serving the Australian market since 1966, showcasing our enduring commitment to quality and reliability.
Witnessing our legacy firsthand, the inaugural dryer to grace Australian soil at Anchorfield Station QLD in 1966 remains operational to this day.
Jim Duncan, with his early affiliations with Alvan Blanch, recognised the untapped potential in the Australian market several years after his arrival.
Leveraging his expertise and understanding, he seized the opportunity to renew his partnership and revitalised the brand, now trading as Alvan Blanch Australia.
