Coles ambassador and 2023 MasterChef winner Brent Draper has helped kick off Coles’ 2024 Movember campaign by shaving off his signature beard for the first time in 12 years! Team Members supported Brent whilst hairstylist to the stars, Joey Scandizzo shaved him down, much to the shock of his wife and young sons who were watching on. "Movember is a cause that is close to my heart for many reasons and I’m honored to shave off my beard for the first time in 12 years to help launch the 2024 fundraising campaign at Coles." Brent said. Coles Chief Technology Officer John Cox showed his support of Brent by jumping in the chair afterwards and having his own beard shaved off. Coles Group Corporate and Indigenous Affairs Officer Sally Fielke said funds raised through the sales of participating products and by team members who take part in the Coles Group Challenge will help Movember support a range of men’s health programs and initiatives across Australia. “Coles team members love getting behind Movember each year and we’re proud to have contributed to the funding of over 1,300 men’s health initiatives globally through our longstanding partnership with Movember, with the support of our team members, customers and suppliers,” she said. Coles Group is the major partner of Movember and has raised more than $4.2m for the charity since 2010 through customer donations, team member fundraising, and donations from the sales of participating products, including all men’s personal care products.

Coles team members across Australia have been out in force in local communities to show their support for kids’ sport this weekend. Team members cooked BBQs, handed out fruit and gift cards and participated in Little Athletics activities for the fifth Coles Community Round. Some even went the extra length by dressing up as bananas for the day! Coles ambassadors Nina Kennedy, Kelsey-Lee Barber, Jaryd Clifford, Brandon Starc and Sally Pearson will also visit centres for Coles Community Round to help inspire future Aussie athletes and share training tips and nutritional advice. Coles Little Athletics Australia CEO Myles Foreman said “Coles Community Round is a great way to celebrate our partnership with Coles, which has provided over $2.5 million in sports equipment grants and more than five million bananas to our centres since 2017. The round also encourages centres to put the ‘fun’ back into the Little Athletics motto – family, fun and fitness.” Coles Community Round will continue until Tuesday 19 November with even more team members set to don their banana suits and running shoes to help little athletes run, jump, throw and grow!

Coles Group has become Australia's first retailer to welcome an electric prime mover truck to our transportation network, with the heavy-duty vehicle now delivering groceries to hundreds of stores across Victoria. In partnership with Linfox , the electric vehicle (EV) will save more than 65 tonnes of CO2 emissions per year compared to a regular diesel-powered prime mover, which is the equivalent of removing 15 cars from the road. The Volvo FH can travel up to 300km on a single charge and is expected to make up to 25 deliveries from the Coles Laverton Distribution Centre each week to stores across Victoria, saving approximately 25,000 litres of fuel every year. In addition to the fuel and emission reductions, the EV is quieter to run, reducing noise pollution during store deliveries and for customers in residential areas, and requires no idling, eliminating further emissions and fuel consumption.
