Are you missing your favourite American candy bar? What to know where to get USA soda?  What about your favourite American Cereal? Where can you buy USA groceries and food in Australia?

Thankfully there are some stores here in Australia that sell USA groceries and foods either in store or online or both. After the nation wide stores, I’ve divided the stores into Australian states and most of these outlets ship online as well.

A tip, especially for the small businesses is to sign up to their newsletters or follow them on social media as they love to share when they get the goodies in.

Coles Supermarkets

Some Coles Supermarkets will have an international foods aisle or section and sometimes there is a little USA food section.

Woolworths Supermarkets

Costco

Website: www.costco.com.au

Since Costco is an American store, there are quite a few American products available there but there is also a lot of Australian ones.

I have a Store Spotlight article on my latest visit to Costco Australia which has a list and some photos of American goodies I found.

Aldi Supermarkets

Website: www.aldi.com.au

Aldi usually have a July 4th sale which features some classic USA foods.

Here are a few photos of what I found at Aldi’s 4th July sale in 2020.

IGA / Foodworks / Independent Supermarkets

Many IGA’s or similar across Australia have an International Section for USA items. Usually there isn’t a large range but you can often get items.

It would be worth checking your local independent supermarket to see what they have. If they don’t have want you want, it might be worth chatting to the manager and seeing if they can get what you want in – especially if you are going to be a regular buyer of that item. 

Victoria and Tasmania

USA Foods

Website: www.usafoods.com.au

I have used USA Foods quite a few times through online shopping. They also have a bricks and mortar store in Melbourne but they also offer online ordering.

USA Foods is popular and do run out of the popular items often but always use the Notify Me button on the product you want so you can be notified once they restock.

If you order online they can take a little while to ship. USA Foods have several promotions during the year as well as Black Friday.
