With a treasure trove of mouth-watering marinades and sauces, The Marinade Man turns ordinary meals into extraordinary feasts.

A scrumptious lineup of 26 unique marinade flavours and three speciality rubs elevates customers grilling game to new heights.

Owner Chris Papanikolaou started experimenting with flavours after two years of development and trail testing.

“What started off as a need to replace the marinade at our local chicken shop turned into a passion that I love doing,” Chris said.

The Marinade Man’s full range of flavours are locally made in Gippsland, something Chris finds important. All the flavours are gluten free, with vegan and vegetarian options available.

Growing up in Latrobe City and helping out with the family business in Manny’s Market, Chris discovered his passion for marinades while on the job.

“Experimenting with flavours and seeing people’s faces light up for the first time they’ve tried the marinades is something I find really rewarding.”

Chris sells to businesses wholesale as well to individual customers around the region.

“I hope to see many families siting across the table enjoying feats together. That’s my biggest aspiration for The Marinade Man.”
