BACKGROUND<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In a tweet to me @Coles said, \u201caround 90% of our Coles Brand Food and drink is Australian made\u201d. I asked them to \u201cconfirm for me that about 90% of Coles own brands are 100% Aus product.\u201d In response they politely referred me to their website. Such detail of information is not available on their website.<\/p>\n

\n

@adropex<\/a> around 90% of our Coles brand food and drink is Australian made and around 96% of our fresh fruit and veg is locally grown.<\/p>\n
