18–24 May
Every year, Australian Made Week gives consumers, businesses, and communities a dedicated opportunity to celebrate and support products grown, made, and manufactured right here in Australia. This year, the week runs from Monday 18 May to Sunday 24 May — seven days to put homegrown quality front and centre.
Australian Made Campaign Chief Executive Ben Lazzaro said the annual campaign was about shining a light on the real benefits of buying local. “Australian Made Week is an opportunity for us to become more conscious about our purchases – because when we support our local makers, growers, farmers and manufacturers over imported goods, we all benefit,” Lazzaro said. According to new research by Roy Morgan, 73% of Australians say they’re willing to buy more Australian-made products to reduce reliance on imports. A strong 72% are also willing to pay more for locally made goods and products.
What Is Australian Made Week?
Australian Made Week is an annual national campaign that shines a spotlight on the extraordinary range of products made on Australian soil. From food and beverages to skincare, clothing, furniture, and industrial goods, the campaign encourages Australians to think local first when they shop, and to recognise the iconic green-and-gold kangaroo logo that guarantees a product’s Australian credentials.
The campaign is driven by the Australian Made Campaign Limited (AMCL), the not-for-profit organisation responsible for managing and promoting the Australian Made, Australian Grown (AMAG) certification trademark.
Why It Matters
Supporting Australian-made products isn’t just a feel-good choice — it has real, tangible benefits for the country:
• Jobs and livelihoods. Every dollar spent on an Australian-made product helps sustain local jobs in manufacturing, farming, packaging, and retail.
• Economic resilience. A strong domestic manufacturing base reduces reliance on overseas supply chains — a lesson brought sharply into focus in recent years.
• Environmental responsibility. Locally made goods often carry a smaller carbon footprint thanks to shorter supply chains and transport distances.
• Quality assurance. Australian manufacturers are subject to some of the world’s strictest safety, environmental, and labour standards.
• Community investment. Buying local keeps money circulating within Australian communities, supporting small businesses and regional economies.
