SPC Baked Beans Rich Tomato

SPC Baked Beans are a staple of Australian pantries, originally launched by the Shepparton Preserving Company (SPC) in Victoria's Goulburn Valley. Since its founding in 1917, the brand has focused on processing locally grown produce. While the company prides itself on using Australian navy beans from regions like Kingaroy and Atherton whenever possible, high demand and seasonal fluctuations sometimes require sourcing beans from Canada to ensure consistent supply.

The brand has seen several shifts in ownership over the decades, notably being part of Coca-Cola Amatil for many years before being sold to a private investment group. Today, SPC is part of SPC Global, which has recently expanded through mergers and acquisitions to become a diversified agribusiness. As of late 2024, the company transitioned into a public entity listed on the Australian Stock Exchange (ASX: SPG), marking a new era of growth and global distribution for its iconic canned and packaged food products.
