Source: APRA Comprehensive Product Performance Package 2026, published 28 August 2026. Fees reflect the reporting year to 30 June 2026, are net of tax, use standard arrangements and exclude member-activity fees. Dollar figures are rounded. They are not a current quote. Check the latest PDS for changes, insurance premiums and any separately charged advice.

Returns are annualised historical results. Different return bases, risk levels and periods cannot be treated as interchangeable. MySuper net returns use a $50,000 representative balance even when you change the fee balance. A lifecycle stage return does not track a person moving between stages. Missing figures mean not reported, not zero. Past returns do not predict future returns. Read our method and APRA's definitions.

Retirement income

Australian Food Super Pension provides an account-based income product. Compare its fee and investment documents separately from accumulation super.

Sources123

Super and pension accounts are available. The current II products do not accept conversion of an existing term allocated pension into that product type.

The fund has engaged Retire360 to provide advice. Confirm which assistance is included and what a more detailed personal plan costs.

Sources123

A financial adviser is part of the intended product model.

Fee details to check

Use the current product disclosure and member guide for the option and account type. Include insurance premiums in a personal comparison.

Use the fees effective from 1 September 2026. Add investments, trading, advice and any cash-account economics; Macquarie published administration and ORFR changes for that date.

Comparing investment performance

Compare the published MySuper or Choice option over identical dates and distinguish pension from accumulation results.

Sources123

The member's portfolio and costs determine the result. An old Macquarie brand return is not a platform performance measure.

THE SUPERGURU VIEW

Our take on Australian Food Super

Editorial assessment

Worth comparing for food-industry workers who want to investigate occupation-specific insurance and a conventional super-and-pension offering.

What deserves a closer look

  • AMIST is an old name for the same offering, not another current competing fund.
  • Do not confuse it with Meat Employees' Industry Superannuation Fund, which is a different scheme.

Based on the cited product features. These are general reasons to investigate the fund, not a personal recommendation. Supporting sources.

THE SUPERGURU VIEW

Our take on Macquarie Wrap

Editorial assessment

Worth comparing for an advised investor who needs the menu and account-management functions.

What deserves a closer look

  • The intended advice relationship creates a cost and service dependency.
  • Current fees changed in September 2026, so older comparison tables can be wrong.

Before choosing between Australian Food Super and Macquarie Wrap

Use the membership rules to establish which accounts are available to you. Then compare the total price of the investment option and cover you need. A lower fee or higher historical return alone does not tell you which fund is suitable.

Ask both funds to confirm insurance acceptance, exclusions, waiting periods and whether cover would change when you leave your employer. Obtain advice before giving up a defined benefit or an insurance policy you may not be able to replace. ASIC Moneysmart explains the comparison checks.
