Pepe Saya

Pepe Saya Butter Co was started in 2009, with the dream of making a beautiful tasting Australian
cultured butter and creating a shift towards using local butter. Made in a unique round pat with the
iconic Pepe Saya head, the first rounds were sold at Carriageworks Farmers Markets in November
2010.

Who are Mr and Mrs Pepe?

Pepe (Pierre) is a buttermaker. A lover of all things dairy and dedicated to changing the landscape of butter consumption in Australia. All those who know him know that he lives and breathes butter.

Mrs Pepe (Melissa) is the butter half of Pepe Saya and our CEO. While Pepe is busy churning butter, Melissa keeps all the wheels in motion, while being a true chameleon - if she is needed anywhere, she is ready to roll up her sleeves.

Our focus at Pepe Saya has always been on getting chefs, bakers and retailers to support Australian-made butter and supply it in their kitchens and on tables across the country- aiming to set the benchmark for Australian butter.
