Australian Made Campaign.

The Australian Made, Australian Grown (AMAG) logo is Australia’s most trusted, recognised and widely used country of origin symbol. It is underpinned by a third-party accreditation system, which ensures products that carry the logo are certified as ‘genuinely Australian’.

For more than 35 years, the AMAG logo has helped thousands of brands communicate their Australian credentials to consumers, businesses and all levels of government. It does this instantly and clearly, making it a powerful sales and marketing asset for authentic Aussie brands, and a helpful shopping aid for consumers around the globe.

We are proud Retail Supporters of the Australian Made Campaign. To join Handmade as a member you must only sell Australian-made items.
