Harvest ResQ — Turning Surplus into Sustainable Value

Harvest ResQ is an on-farm and regional processing solution designed to intercept, rescue, and transform surplus or imperfect Australian fruit before it becomes waste.

Developed by Zest Element, Harvest ResQ uses solar-powered dehydration technology to convert “wonky” or rejected fruit into high-value, shelf-stable ingredients for food service, retail, and export.

Capacity 2.9Tonne per day

By partnering with growers, processors, and industry, we’re building a circular supply chain — rescuing waste locally, processing regionally, and exporting premium Australian fruit powders globally.

The benefits go beyond waste reduction:

• Economic – creates new income streams for farmers

• Environmental – reduces landfill and methane emissions

• Social – builds local jobs and supports sustainable communities

Harvest ResQ is a scalable model ready to support regional Queensland and beyond.
