As a girl growing up in Kakadu, Kylie-Lee Bradford had a dream: she wanted to start a business offering products made from wild harvested native foods. 🌱 This #IndigenousBusinessMonth, we’re celebrating the First Nations exporting businesses bringing Australia’s innovation and unique products to the world! 🖤💛❤️💚💙 The proud Murrumburr woman from Kakadu National Park has made her dream come true. Kakadu Organics uses beautiful native ingredients like Kakadu plum, lemon myrtle and wild lime in its foods, teas and wellness products. Now, the #FirstNations business wants to share its products with the world. Kylie used Australian Trade and Investment Commission (Austrade)’s Go Global Toolkit to test her export readiness, research markets and prepare an export plan, and took part in a trade mission to Southeast Asia for First Nations business, that resulted in her first export deal with Singapore’s Ryan's Grocery. Kakadu Organics’ success is enabling Kylie to fulfil another dream: through a give-back program, she is empowering other First Nations women to succeed in business, arts and culture.
