Quality – every step
of the way.
Mark and Jeremy Dyson
Launching a wool brokering business the week before the collapse of the Reserve Price Scheme could have been seen as a bold decision.
But almost three decades after opening its doors in the backblocks of Port Adelaide’s iconic wool store precinct, Mark Dyson has since developed

As a company fully committed to the highest standards in animal welfare and best practices in land management and sustainability,

Whether it's a few bales or our main shearing, it doesn't matter what size. They put in the same effort.
Simon our Quality rep is very good with this and it's something that helps a lot of growers and we notice.
He looks at what's best for us, and is always happy to come out and keep an eye on what's happening with your wool so he understands it.

I like the way they organise our transport. Loading the main shearing wool is quick and efficient with Dave Schulz on the
