About Papaya Gold

We identified a real opportunity to take an existing health & beauty product that had been unchanged for 100 years, and introduce the next generation formulation of PapayaGold with Manuka Honey Ointment.


Products of Australia Pty Ltd (POA) commenced manufacturing & marketing high quality, value for money, Australian made products in 2007.

  • POA launched Paw Paw (Papaya) products in 2009. These were enthusiastically received by Australian retailers, initially under the Coco Island brand.
  • POA has now established distribution in the UK, Korea, Myanmar, South Africa, Fiji, New Zealand & Singapore, and is communicating with several other key markets around the world. As a result of this expansion, we learnt that the name of the fruit (Paw Paw or Papaya) is recognized differently in various markets.
  • To maximise consumer awareness in all markets, POA is rebranding to incorporate the heritage of both names of the fruit – Paw Paw and Papaya and adding the “Gold” as reference to the refined and unique Manuka Honey.

POA is excited to have the opportunity to work with VH2 to be the first to market in this new category for the UK retailers.
