TRENOS SiGINT: Pistachio Papi Breaks Woolworths Records

JC Analyst– August, 2025

Signal:

Pistachio Papi, barely two months on Woolworths shelves, has delivered a record 20,000 jars sold in one week, surpassing legendary spread brands. Supply limits kept shelves bare at times, yet the brand still posted the strongest weekly result ever. At Coles, the companion Quattro Gelato blew through a 12-week plan in just four, proving the pistachio craze is a livewire retail event with cross-category pull.

Human Factor:

Aussie shoppers are showing they’ll ditch heritage favourites the moment a fresh, premium flavour hits the aisle. Pistachio Papi is tapping straight into curiosity, indulgence and social bragging rights and consumers don’t just eat it, they share it. This is the modern food zeitgeist based on scarcity, virality, and flavour disruption.
