Cracking local Australian flavours in new ranges
Australian cracker brand Tucker’s Natural has launched Artisan Range, exclusively in Coles.
The new line features five varieties – Hummus, Rosemary Linseed & Rock Salt, Tomato & Basil, Five Seed and Lemon Myrtle & Pepper. The Artisan Range is non-GMO, yeast free and palm oil free and a source of fibre, according to the company.
“The leading supermarket chains have recognised these changing consumer trends,” said Sam Tucker, MD at Tucker’s Natural. “We worked with Coles to deliver a cracker range more in tune with current consumer needs.
“Coles also recognised that consumers are looking for Australian-owned and made products, that have provenance tracing, as well as brands that they can trust to consume safely and who take environmental responsibility seriously. Tucker’s Natural ticks all of these boxes,” he said.
Tucker’s Natural Artisan Crackers are now available at Coles at RRP of $4.
