If you’ve ever met a Brit who’s lived in Australia, you’ve probably heard them mourn the lack of Marks & Spencer’s iconic Percy Pigs. What seems to be the most popular souvenir request for anyone making the trip over the pond, the iconic raspberry and strawberry gummy lollies in the shape of little pigs are a beloved delicacy for anyone who has spent any time in the UK. So much so, that travellers are filling their luggage to the brim with the sugary sweet.
But, the impassioned pleas and suitcase-stuffing of Percy Pigs for anyone visiting the UK can be a distant memory, now that Coles has announced it will be stocking the M&S brand locally in stores from November 19th.
“2025 has been a year of adventure… We’re coming, Australia – 19/11/2025.” a teaser post shared to the official Percy Pigs Instagram page read. Marks & Spencer confirmed it too: “The rumours are true… We’re bringing the magic of M&S Food Down Under.”
The arrival of Marks and Spencer lollies to Coles in Australia has caused nothing short of a shopper frenzy, with one commenting “It’s a Christmas miracle!!” and another saying “I’m going to be spending so much money at Coles.”
It’s being reported that two M&S branded lollies will be arriving in Australia: the iconic Percy Pig gummies and Colin the Caterpillar sours.
Percy Pigs are chewy fruit gummies in the shape of little pink pig faces made from real fruit juice: raspberry, grape, elderberry, blackcurrant, and mandarin.
Colin the Caterpillar sours are vegan gummies with a sour sugar coating, available in pineapple-orange, peach-mango, and raspberry-lemon.
The range also includes fan favourites, like Percy Pig Phizzy Pigtails, Percy Pig Piglets, Percy Pig Reversy Percy, Colin the Caterpillar Fruit Gums, Colin the Caterpillar Party Time, Colin the Caterpillar Cola Gums and Colin the Caterpillar Cherry Gums.
And just in time for Christmas, we could also be seeing a few other recognisable M&S classics on our shelves including Scottish Shortbread, Luxury Gold Tea Bags and The Original Very Moreish Munch Tin.
Where to buy Percy Pigs in Australia
Fans of Percy Pigs will need only visit one grocery store moving forward: Coles Supermarkets will be the official Australian stockist of the M&S range from the 19th November, with Percy Pigs priced at $6 per bag.
