We are proud to be one of Australia Post Local Business Heroes 2023.
Local Business Heroes is an Australia Post initiative to recognise, support and celebrate small businesses for their contribution to local communities.
Only 100 businesses have been selected Australia wide. We received over $5000 worth of prize packages
and as part of them, we were promoted at every post office in Townsville region.
We were featured in the Cairns Post newspaper in August 2025. Our Cairns pop-up store in Smithfield Shopping Centre was open from October 2024 to December 2025.
We were also in communication with local MPs to explore ways to subsidise sun-safe clothing.
Our story has been published in a national magazine, Commonwealth Bank Brighter March/April 2024 issue.
Learn about how we started and our belief in running a business sustainably.
