When and why did you start your business?

I was importing a range of beautiful bags from Thailand and doing markets etc the feedback was people wanted Australian made. I moved to Darwin and within a day or so went out shopping to purchase a gift to send back to Victoria and quickly discovered the choice of quality gifts and taking home a cultural story was lacking. Parking infront of Nomad Gallery (Parap Darwin) with rolls of textiles staring at me quickly changed my business adventure.
