The detail
The Providore price map: one retailer, one price
Providore is a Pet Circle own-label range, and of the ten retailers we track it is the only stockist. That makes the cheapest-retailer question a formality: Providore Grain Free Adult 12kg is $115.00 AUD at Pet Circle on our editorial estimates, or $9.58 per kg, feeding a 15kg adult dog at about $2.20 a day. The bag rates 74 out of 100.
The absence of a second stockist removes the levers price shoppers normally use. Pet Circle does not price match in our data, and the retailers that do, Petbarn, Petstock and PETO, do not carry the range, so there is no rival shelf to play $115.00 against. Providore's availability score of 61 out of 100 is that single-stockist arrangement showing up in the mark.
One pack size, so price per kilo is the whole argument
Providore gives you no size ladder to climb. Our index holds one pack, the 12kg grain-free adult bag, so there is no 20kg option that quietly lowers the rate. At $9.58 per kg and about $2.20 a day, that $115.00 bag covers roughly 52 days of feeding for a 15kg adult dog, or close to $15.40 a week before any autoship discount.
Compare that with the bigger packs in our index. SavourLife Original Adult Chicken is 18kg at $8.06 per kg, and Black Hawk's grain-free 15kg runs $10.60 per kg. Providore's 12kg is the smallest bag of the three, and its $9.58 per kg lands between them, so the pack is neither a bulk buy nor a trial size. What $9.58 per kg buys is chicken first, 27 per cent protein and 16 per cent fat.
The only timing lever is Pet Circle autoship
Because one retailer stocks the range, one discount applies. Pet Circle autoship takes Providore Grain Free Adult 12kg from $115.00 to $109.00, which is $9.08 per kg and pulls the daily estimate from $2.20 to roughly $2.09. That is a saving of $6.00 a bag, a little over five per cent, and it is the entire timing strategy available on this brand.
Delivery adds nothing to work around. Pet Circle ships free above $49.00, so a single $115.00 bag clears the threshold on its own. Its subscription pillar scores 84 out of 100 in our retailer index, the strongest part of buying Providore this way, but Pet Circle has no physical stores for pickup and does not price match, so $109.00 is the floor, not a starting point.
A cheaper grain-free bag on the same shelf
The awkward finding for Providore is that the alternative sitting beside it costs less. SavourLife Grain Free Adult Lamb 15kg is $142.00 at Pet Circle and $135.00 on autoship, which works out at $9.00 per kg against Providore's $9.08. That is a lower rate for a bag rating 84 out of 100 rather than 74, at 28 per cent protein rather than 27.
The brand gap is wider than the price gap. SavourLife scores 75 overall and 76 on transparency, against Providore's 64 and 57, and it is also sold at Petbarn and Budget Pet Products, so you can shop it around. Pet Circle's other own-label, The Nosh Project, is cheaper still at $8.83 per kg on autoship, but it rates 72 and is not grain free.

Scored on the same 100-point model and priced from the same index, so the comparison is like for like.
SavourLife
Premium · Good
Fair value and the rescue donations are real, not greenwash: but the food itself is good rather than exceptional, with mid-premium panels and a narrow range. Buy it because the per-kg value stacks up, not because the cause makes the ingredients better than they are.

Ivory Coat
Premium · Good
A competent grain-free all-rounder, but it's mid-pack on every measure and now sits inside a big multi-brand portfolio where recipes have moved with ownership. Fine if the price is right on the day: just don't expect it to out-spec a more focused independent brand.

Black Hawk
Premium · Good
Fine on a discounted big bag if you choose a named-meat-first recipe, but don't assume the whole range is equal: the cheaper lines pad the panel with grain and rice, and a chunk of the price is reach and marketing rather than ingredients. Compare the specific formula on cost per kg against SavourLife and Ivory Coat.

In our index, the best Providore value is Providore Grain Free Adult 12kg at $9.58/kg, cheapest at Pet Circle. Online-only retailers like Pet Circle and Budget Pet Products are usually the price-to-beat. Always compare price per kg on the exact product.
Online-only stores like Pet Circle and Budget Pet Products often post the lowest everyday prices, while Petbarn is very competitive on member and Repeat Delivery pricing, with the bonus of stores nationwide. Compare price per kg whichever way you buy.
Buy the largest bag size you'll use before it goes stale, use subscription or autoship pricing where available, and compare price per kg rather than sticker price. The cheapest bag isn't always the cheapest feed once serving size is factored in.
If you're price-shopping, compare SavourLife, Ivory Coat, Black Hawk on price per kg and cost per day: you may get similar quality for less.
No, not on our editorial estimates. Providore Grain Free Adult 12kg lands at $9.08 per kg on Pet Circle autoship, at $109.00 for the bag, while SavourLife Grain Free Adult Lamb 15kg comes to $9.00 per kg on the same autoship pricing, at $135.00. The SavourLife bag also rates 84 out of 100 against Providore's 74. Black Hawk's grain-free 15kg is dearer again at $144.00 on autoship, or $9.60 per kg.
On our editorial estimates a 15kg adult dog feeds at about $2.20 a day, so the $115.00 bag covers roughly 52 days, or close to $15.40 a week. On Pet Circle autoship at $109.00 that falls to about $14.60 a week. Smaller dogs stretch the bag further and larger dogs empty it faster, so portion by the on-pack feeding guide. This is not veterinary advice.
Slightly. The Nosh Project Adult 12kg is $112.00 at Pet Circle, or $106.00 on autoship, which is $8.83 per kg against Providore's $9.08. It rates 72 out of 100 to Providore's 74, carries 26 per cent protein rather than 27, and is not grain free. Both ranges also share the same transparency score of 57 out of 100, so the saving does not buy you more disclosure.
