Australia’s first 4 star popcorn
HEALTH and Nutrition is now a dominant theme which influences political and social trends, including buyer behaviour within the grocery and snack food market.
Consumers and regulatory bodies are seeking natural, healthy, nutritional alternatives to replace ‘traditional’ snack-food choices that are often high in saturated fats, sodium, kilojoules, and price.
Koala Pop Korn (KPK) is a niche player in the popcorn industry, offering a higher fibre and lower fat healthy snack-food options with a better nutritional makeup than many of its potato and corn-based competition.
Established in 1990 from a corn farming background, KPK was one of Australia’s first popping corn growers for the Department of Agriculture and uses all natural, gluten free flavours and hot air popping to create the perfect snack.
Koala Pop Korn markets packaged, ready-to-eat popcorn in 25g bags for individual sale in a range of all natural flavours including, Traditional Salted, Chicken, B.B.Q, Sweet n Salty, and Sweet Chilli.
Governmental nutritional guidelines have been introduced across the NSW school canteen market, with other States sure to soon follow, which means many of Koala Pop Korn’s not-so-healthy competitors have to be withdrawn from sale by 2019.
Koala Pop Korn’s products fall within these policy exclusionary guidelines and will continue to be available for sale in all school canteens across Australia.
Only all natural and Australian products are used in the Koala Pop Korn range to meet all canteen requirements.
Koala Pop Korn has the right product and manufacturing process to offer parents and concerned customers with a healthy snack alternative for canteens and sporting events.
