Arnott's is an iconic Australian brand with a legacy dating back to 1865. Originally founded by William Arnott in Newcastle, New South Wales, the company became a household name for its wide variety of biscuits, including the famous Tim Tam and the Shortbread Cream viewed in the image.
The manufacturing of Arnott's products is historically centered in Australia, with major production facilities in Sydney and Brisbane. While the brand remains deeply tied to its Australian heritage, its ownership has transitioned to international investment firms. In 2019, the global investment firm KKR (Kohlberg Kravis Roberts) acquired the Arnott's Group from the Campbell Soup Company, maintaining its position as a major player in the global snack market through the 2026 period.
Despite the change in corporate ownership, the Arnott's Group continues to market its Australian identity heavily, ensuring that flagship products like the Shortbread Cream maintain their traditional recipes and local production standards for the Australasian and international markets.
