Why buy Australian made?
Four benefits of buying locally made products
Anything made in Australia means job opportunities for Australians, and if these products are sold within the country, the dollars continue to circulate in the local economy, which benefits the Australian economy and communities.
In most cases, raw materials and ingredients depend on weather conditions; in other cases, some industries rely on specialised technology and production processes that are not found everywhere. That said, any product made in Australia will be better off if its raw materials and ingredients are sourced locally.
We have all heard about the impact transportation fuels have on the environment. Simply put, an imported product travels from their manufacturing location to consumers in Australia. This uses a greater amount of fuel compared to an Australian product, which is made and packaged right here. The transport fuel required would be very little.
As with any country, there are quality standards and working condition regulations that all businesses must abide to. Compared to many other places in the world, Australian businesses are assessed to meet high standards of manufacturing quality, and fair-trade regulations are supported and monitored.
When we buy products made overseas, we may be supporting businesses that don’t comply with fair trade conditions in their factories; and in most cases, the products may be lower in cost but may also be of lower quality.
