A ready-supply of food for Aussies in need

“Foodbank’s Collaborative Supply Programs are vital. They allow us to move away from the “Surprise Chain” and give us assurance of a regular supply chain. We are guaranteed a regular supply of Weet-Bix in our Foodbank warehouses all year round, ready to assist more than one million people a month and provde breakfast at 3000 schools across the country.” Briana Casey, CEO, Foodbank Australia  

Through the Collaborative Supply Program, we donate two million serves of Weet-Bix to Foodbank Australia every year. Weet-Bix is a much-loved pantry staple and the only cereal in Foodbank’s Collaborative Supply Program.

“The Collaborative Pack helps develop sustainable healthy communities, which is not only a key objective of our corporate social responsibility program, but also a key need for many Aussies who are struggling more than ever in these times of hardship.” Kevin Jackson, CEO, Sanitarium Health Food Company.

What is a Collaborative Supply Program?

Since 2010, we’ve worked with likeminded suppliers to donate the ingredients, production, packaging, cartons and transport to produce 2 million serves of Weet-Bix for distribution through Foodbank’s network of charity partners to Aussies doing it tough.
