From Feral to Functional: Scaling for Secured Export
Australian Wild Camel Corporation P/L
Industrialising Australia's Unique Biological Monopoly
Ten years ago, we identified a massive untapped resource: Australia’s feral camel population, which is the largest and only disease-free population in the world. Today, The Australian Wild Camel Corporation trading as Summer Land Camels has successfully industrialised this resource, building a “Biological Monopoly” in the high-growth functional food sector.
We have spent a decade proving the model, securing our supply chain, and establishing a multi-award-winning brand. Now, we are at a historic turning point. We are moving from a local success story to a major global export powerhouse.
This raise will scale our production capacity to meet qualified international demand for camel milk products.

Our Vertically Integrated Revenue Engine
Summer Land Camels operates a vertically integrated ecosystem designed to maximise the value of every animal and ensure operational resilience with secured margins.
Our revenue is driven by three strategic pillars:
- High-Value Dairy (The Engine): Our primary focus is the production of premium camel milk and milk powder. With a price point of $275/kg, our milk powder is a high-margin, shelf-stable global asset. We solve the dairy dilemma for health-conscious consumers by providing a nutrient-dense, A1-protein-free alternative that is easy on the gut and rich in immune-supporting proteins.
- Skincare and Meat (Value-Add): We maximise the value of our biological assets through our award-winning skincare range and premium camel meat products. By utilising bioactive properties in our skincare and sustainable meat production, we ensure multiple revenue streams from a single supply chain.
- Agri-Tourism (Brand Validation): Our Harrisville farm serves as a powerful marketing engine, attracting nearly 70,000 visitors annually. This provides immediate cash flow and builds a loyal community of brand ambassadors who see and touch the source of their products.
With this multi-channel approach, our high-volume export deals drive scale, while our diversified domestic lines provide stability and resilience.
Global Demand for Functional Nutrition
The global dairy alternative market is evolving beyond plant-based waters toward bioactive, functional nutrition. Summer Land Camels is positioned at the intersection of three massive growth trends:
- The US Export Gateway: North America represents the world’s largest consumer market for premium health products. By securing a milestone order for 60,000L of milk annually and establishing an FDA-cleared supply chain, we are moving into a high-volume, high-growth environment with significant barriers to entry for competitors.
- The Digestive Health Movement: With a global surge in gut-health awareness, consumers are seeking alternatives to traditional dairy. Camel milk is uniquely positioned as a premier solution, being naturally A1-protein-free and easier to digest, tapping into a multibillion-dollar functional food market.
- Sustainability: Investors and consumers are increasingly prioritising low-impact production. Camels are biologically superior for arid Australian climates, requiring less water than plant-based milk substitutes and producing lower methane than traditional livestock.
Summer Land Camel Dairy offers a scalable solution to the global demand for sustainable, functional nutrition.
Commercial Validation and Secured Contracts
Summer Land Camels has transitioned from a pioneering concept to a high-growth industrial operation. Our track record is defined by consistent commercial validation:
- Revenue Breakthrough: Camel milk powder revenue grew 128% over the last 24 months, with a 76% surge in the final year alone.
- Market Validation: Domestic fresh milk sales increased by 120% over the same period, confirming deep consumer trust.
- Secured Global Contract: Milestone order for up to 60,000L of frozen milk annually for the US market.
- Award-Winning Excellence: Over 100 dairy industry awards, establishing our brand as the premier producer in Australia.
- Operational Scale: Nearly 70,000 visitors annually to our Harrisville farm, providing a stable foundation of revenue and brand awareness.
- Export Legacy: Successfully exporting camel milk cheese to the US for five years, proving our ability to navigate complex international supply chains.
