Henry Jones IXL was a company primarily known as a manufacturer of jams, conserves and sauces in Australia. The brand was owned and its products manufactured by SPC Ardmona from 2004, which was itself owned by Coca-Cola Amatil from February 2005.
SPC acquired IXL and Taylors brands in 2004, and sold both brands with the Kyabram factory in 2019 to a group of farmers and growers in the Goulburn Valley. The new owners have Malaysian investment.
March 2025 the IXL brand was returned to Australian hands. Now part of IXL Foods Pty Ltd, the company’s founding directors have a 50-year pedigree in Australian fruit growing and manufacturing. Investing heavily in new fruit processing equipment to guarantee the new generation of IXL products will be made with real Australian whole fruit and purees, the company has also restored the brand's original jam flavour line-up (including Plum, Apricot, Raspberry, Forest Fruits, Breakfast Marmalade and Strawberry) and resuscitated IXL jam distribution in Asia.
