Coles Chick Peas

Coles Chick Peas are a staple pantry item from Coles Supermarkets, one of Australia’s largest retail chains. This private-label product is part of their affordable grocery range, providing a good source of fibre and maintaining a high health star rating. While the brand is quintessentially Australian, Coles often sources its canned legume products from overseas experts, with many of these canned chick peas being processed in Italy using premium agricultural methods.

The brand originated in Melbourne, Australia, and has evolved from a variety store into a massive corporate entity. Following a significant demerger from the Wesfarmers conglomerate in 2018, Coles Group Limited now operates as an independent public company listed on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX). This ownership structure ensures that while the brand has deep Australian roots and serves the local market, it is governed by a diverse group of institutional and public shareholders.
