Sunbites Grain Waves are a popular wholegrain snack known for their unique wavy shape and crunchy texture. Originally developed as a healthier alternative to traditional potato chips, Grain Waves are made with over 60% wholegrains, including corn, wheat, and oats. The 'Sour Cream & Chives' variety is a staple in the Australian snack market, often marketed for its lower fat content compared to standard fried chips.

While the Sunbites brand has its heritage in the United Kingdom, where it was launched by Walkers, the Australian iteration is managed by The Smith's Snackfood Company. The product shown is explicitly labeled as 'Proudly Australian Made,' indicating local production using primarily local ingredients.

The brand is under the ultimate ownership of PepsiCo, a global leader in the food and beverage industry based in the United States. In the Australian market, the product is distributed and managed through PepsiCo's local subsidiary, Bluebird Foods / Smith's Snackfood Company, ensuring large-scale availability across major supermarkets like Coles and Woolworths.
