  
In 1865, a small bakery opened in Hunter Street, Newcastle, north of Sydney, New South Wales. It supplied bread, pies and biscuits to the local townspeople as well as to the crews of the many ships that docked at the port to load coal. From these humble beginnings rose a company whose name is now synonymous with Australia's favourite biscuits and snacks.
Today, Arnott's employs thousands of people and supplies biscuits to more than 40 countries.
Millions of Australians have grown up with Arnott's during the past 140 years. For them, Arnott's is more than a food company - it's a piece of Australia's history and a national icon.
