Founded in 1967 by Phil and Muriel Cohen, Fertool began as a small, family-run business repackaging Osmocote from their garage in Narre Warren.
From these humble beginnings, the company pioneered the now-standard practice of selling fertiliser in margarine-style tubs — a simple innovation that made a lasting impact on the horticultural industry.
Over the decades, Fertool has evolved through several ownerships, weathering major industry shifts including the rise of 7-day trading, the growth of national chains, and the transformation brought about by digital marketing. Through it all, one thing has remained constant: our commitment to quality, reliability, and genuine customer relationships.
Today, Fertool is proudly owned and operated by Scott and Michael Vozzo — industry professionals with strong backgrounds in horticulture, customer service, and community sport. Under their leadership, Fertool continues to deliver premium horticultural products to nurseries, landscapers, councils, and trade outlets across Australia.
In 2025, a new era begins. For the first time, Fertool’s retail range will be available direct to consumers, supported by the launch of our brand-new website. We're excited to bring the same trusted products and service to homes and gardens nationwide.
