Shopping yesterday, and of course I have to head down the "international" food aisle in a minor act of solidarity towards my newly arrived Australian brothers and sisters, and of course to load up on some Mission foods Mexican vitals.

Alas, Safeway Newmarket has none! Nada! Nilch!

Is this roll out taking longer than expected or are Mission launching Coles first and then spreading to lower standard supermarkets at a later date?

We have both the Coles & Safeway supermarkets within close proximity of each other (Avondale Heights & Keilor East) ...the Mission products are available in the Safeway store but no sign of them in the Coles Supermarket.

I bought a Mission food Taco pack from Coles Williamstown. I don't usually buy that stuff but thought I'd support the club.

I work at Coles at my way, and we definitely have their stuff, and I'd imagine most other supermarkets would have it unless they've run out of stock, you were probably just looking in the wrong spot. As a result of their sponsorship though, every time I see someone pick up the competitors product and buy it I cringe a little now.

I have already purchased three different kinds of Mission flat bread from my local Woolworths (Safeway) in Perth ... They were available from that first Monday after our sponsorship announcement

The products are at our SAfeway, but located in the fresh bread section. I have tried couple of different wraps - all yummy!

Walk up to the Manager and tell him he's a dill for not stocking Mission and you're off to Coles to buy it.

Aha, looking in the Mexican section, and last looked in the fresh bread section on Monday, which tends to resemble a Zimbabwean 7-11 until about mid week.

Glad to hear others are buying the greatest Mexican accrouments on the planet (probably).

I found it near the 'old el paso' section (strike me down for naming the competition!!).

Normally near the canned foods etc.

I haven't yet found any Mission products in Perth, even at my local Woolworths (Mt Hawthorn). Where is your Woolies/Safeway Scraggers? Looking forward to trying some of their products and supporting the club.

cheers!

I went to Garden City shopping centre yesterday and they have yet to stock Mission products on the Woolies shelves there.

Hey RD ... Woolworths Melville ... in the bread isle they have four different varieties of flat breads

I haven't ventured to the international foods yet to see if they have tacos / nacho etc :)

Not the Mission ones but have had that problem with another brand.

Our Coles in Mornington hadn't had them for a few weeks after the promotion but Safeway did!...VERY nice as well.

Many of you have queried where can we get the Mission products.

Simply, go to any Coles store in any state.

They have between 2 lines (smaller stores) to 4 lines (larger stores) in the Bakery section.

With 7 to 11 lines in the Mexican section - again depending on store size.

Mission is now their number 2 supplier of Mexican products behind Old El Paso.

Still love the old meat pies.
