Albury Detecting Acting Inspector Chris Wallace said the arrests were the culmination of excellent work by police on both sides of the border.
"The supply of drugs in regional towns has a major impact on the community, and it simply won't be tolerated," he said.
"We have worked closely with our counterparts in Victoria throughout this investigation and the hard work of police on both sides of the border has paid off.
"We will continue to target those engaging in the supply of illegal drugs, and rest assured anyone who engages in these activities will face the full brunt of the law."
Enquiries under Strike Force Stair are continuing.
