GMC celebrates Australian Made Week

May 22, 2026

Geelong Manufacturing Council is proud to celebrate Australian Made Week, recognising the vital role local manufacturing plays in driving regional prosperity and economic growth.

Supporting local manufacturing delivers clear benefits: it creates skilled jobs, builds supply chain resilience, keeps investment within Australian communities, and reduces reliance on imports. It also ensures high-quality, reliable products designed for Australian conditions, while supporting innovation and long-term industry capability.

This national campaign encourages Australians to choose locally made products and support homegrown businesses – helping sustain jobs, strengthen supply chains and boost the economy.

GMC is proud to champion local manufacturers and encourages industry and community to back Australian-made – because when we support local, we all benefit.
