Campbell's Tomato Soup is an iconic product with a rich heritage dating back to the late 19th century. Originally invented in the United States by Dr. John T. Dorrance, a chemist who developed the commercial method for condensing soup, the brand has become a global household name.

In the Australian market, Campbell's products have a long-standing local presence. The soup shown in the image is typically manufactured at the Campbell's facility in Victoria, Australia, using predominantly Australian-grown ingredients, including tomatoes sourced from the Goulburn Valley.

While the brand originated in the USA, the Australian operations were part of a significant corporate shift. In 2019, Campbell Soup Company sold its Australian and international snacks and soup business (Campbell Arnott's) to the global investment firm KKR. Consequently, while the brand name remains Campbell's, the ultimate ownership in the Australian region is under the Arnott's Group, which is headquartered in Sydney and owned by KKR.
