About the Down Under Expo

Thank you for your consideration to join us for our Down Under Expo. We hope this event highlights the quality and diversity of Australian manufacturing, the brands, the products and the people behind the brands.

This event will provide the interested consumer the opportunity to view 100% Australian made products only.

During the last several years we have personally witnessed a massive change within the industry, as no doubt you have. The landscape at trade shows has moved away from the showcasing of genuine products for the interested consumer. The market has become flooded with inferior imported products, pop-up brands and it feels at times more like a show and shine. 

There is definitely a strong market for quality Australian made products, if anything more so now than ever due to the Covid-19 crisis. Consumers considering the origin of their product and perhaps questioning more than ever how important it is to support Australian manufacturing.

Over the last few years regardless of what products we manufacture we have all faced the same struggles and challenges.  We have endured some of the toughest times in business and we all have continued on because we are passionate about our businesses, our brands and we are passionate about making Australian Made products.

The Down Under Expo is an event we will market to the consumer where they can view only products made in Australia. The consumer will in most cases be engaging with one of the small business owners themselves and will get to hear firsthand what makes manufacturing in Australia so important to you, the story behind your brand and how your products came to be. The consumer will have buying confidence knowing that any product they view during this event has been made in Australia.

The event will be held on Saturday 14th October 2023 at Ivory’s Rock 310 Mt Flinders Road, Peak Crossing QLD 4306.

All exhibitors will have an opportunity to camp/stay onsite over the weekend. The event will enable us exhibitors a chance to catch up have a laugh and network with each other! We can share our stories with each other.

Food vans, coffee vans and entertainment are all included in the event and there is no cost to you as an exhibitor for the event

You will be required to promote the event through your own marketing avenues to ensure the Expo will reach the potential it deserves. This will include promotion prior, during and after the event. 

All brands will need to be promoted by your own staff, no influencers will be permitted to promote the products. This event is about you and your brand. 

We want to make sure that all brands will receive maximum exposure! This is our time to shine the light on Aussie Manufacturers.
