Introduction

The Coles Product Catalogue (CPC) is an online portal that allows suppliers to register new items and provide product updates including price changes, dimensions and country of origin.

All food suppliers must use CPC or GS1’s National Product Catalogue (NPC) to provide product information.

Refer to the CPC FAQs for more information and to help you determine the best catalogue for your business.
