Since 1969 we've looked after tens of thousands of customers from right around
Australia and many different parts of the world. Here's what just some of
them have had to say about us in that time:
The Best Peanuts In The World!
"This is the best family business and the best peanuts in the world! Mrs
Davis' Peanut Van and the Kingaroy area impressed us very much."

They Surpass Any Others!
"We visited your town briefly this week and called yet again at your famous
Peanut Van for our annual supply of peanuts. We're convinced after buying
them regularly that they surpass any others we've tried anywhere else. All
power to the Peanut Van! Keep up the good work!"
E. and R. Dionysius, Grantham
Excellent Nuts!
"Just a short note to say thanks for the excellent nuts that you forwarded.
We visit that area often. I have always made a point of stopping off at your
van as I consider you sell the best nuts I have ever tasted"
Commander John O'Brien - HMAS Darwin (when in the Gulf of Oman)
Can't Get Any Fresher!
"I always get peanuts from The Peanut Van whenever I come to Kingaroy because
I simply can't get peanuts as fresh anywhere else"
Joan Ticknell - Gold Coast (pictured at right)
Thank You For Such Good Quality
"Just a short note to say "Thank You!" for supplying a good quality product.
We've been buying peanuts of various types from you for over 10 years and
have always found them to be top quality and fresh. We've given peanut trays
to several of our customers through business conventions etc, and they're
always well received by them. Naturally, they associate Kingaroy with
peanuts..."
Barry and Lexie Randall - South Burnett Paper and Packaging
A Customer For 17 Years
"May I take this opportunity to say how much I've enjoyed your products over
a considerable period of time. My husband John and I were on holiday in Murgon
the first time we sampled your peanuts. We bought several large bags, a couple
of which actually made it back to the West! That was 17 years ago and since
then - as you know - we've had regular supplies mailed to us. The quality
has always remained excellent and the prompt service is to be commended!
We and many of or friends enjoy the various flavours and cooking methods,
and hope to do so for many years to come. Keep up the good work!"
Sue Molloy, Tom Price, Western Australia
We Made A Special Trip To Get Them!
"We were holidaying in Noosa and made a special trip to Kingaroy because
we'd heard about The Peanut Van and really wanted to try your products"
John and Ngaire Wippell, Mossman (pictured at right)
Thank You For Your Promptness!
"I'm writing on behalf of 20 very satisfied customers to thank you for your
courteous, prompt and efficient service in the dispatch of our recent order
- and to congratulate you on the marketing of such an excellent product whose
quality we've found to be of a consistently high standard. As you are aware,
my family and I have always regarded a visit to The Peanut Van as "a must"
on on our holidays (in fact, it's always rated as one of the highlights of
our trip north). Each trip we take we receive more and more requests from
friends to please "bring us back some of those delicious nuts from Kingaroy".
You will have also noticed that our order is increasing in size each year,
and we're always surprised that you manage to send it so promptly and packed
so well that the goods always arrive in excellent condition. It's gratifying
to see that such good old-fashioned service still exists in this busy
world."
Valerie McGuire, Nowra
Always Lovely and Fresh
"Dear Mrs Patch: Thank you for ringing me back about the prices on peanuts.
I'm enclosing a cheque for $25.25 for 5kg of raw peanuts in the shell, plus
postage. This is the only way I can be sure of getting Australian nuts. I
won't buy the packets because they all have imported nuts. We always call
at The Peanut Van when we drive through Kingaroy and they're always lovely
and fresh."
Wendy Coutts-Smith, Maryborough
An Inspiration To Us All
"Dear Rob & Chris: I'm just writing a short note to thank you yet again
for all your hard work helping us run the Thresher Pull at the Kingaroy Peanut
Festival. It beats me how you can manage to run an outstanding business that's
brought so much favourable publicity to Kingaroy and our Festival, look after
thousands of customers every week and still find free time to donate to the
community - but I'm certainly glad you do! You're an inspiration to us all.
Best wishes!"
President, Kingaroy Peanut Festival Committee
