Help us save Jaffas and Pineapple Lumps!

Foodstuffs puts the call out to lolly makers – help us save Jaffas and Pineapple Lumps!

Like most New Zealanders, we are gutted at the prospect that the days are numbered for our iconic Jaffas, Pineapple Lumps, Buzz Bars, and Pinky Bars. Foodstuffs, the owner of PAK'nSAVE, New World, and Four Square, is a proud New Zealand company, and like the rest of the country we grew up with these Kiwi favourites. Reading today's news that time is fast running out to save these favourite treats gave us a brilliant idea.

If you think you have what it takes to help us save them for New Zealand, we'll get right behind you. We'll work with you to help you get set up to sell to us, cram our shelves with them, and we'll then help promote them to the millions of New Zealanders and visitors to this fine country who come through our doors each week. We'll work up a sweat like nothing you've ever seen, unless it was on the ABs’ foreheads in an international test match, or the Silver Ferns as they race around the court against the Aussies, or our heroes in Bermuda as they race from side to side on that insanely scary boat.

So, if you're sitting on the fence. Get off it now. Be a saviour. Give us a call. And let's work together to rescue these awesome treats.

We're waiting! C'mon.

From Chris Quin, CEO, Foodstuffs North Island and Steve Anderson, CEO Foodstuffs South Island
