Who is Ausbuy?

The Australian Companies Institute (Ausbuy) is a not-for-profit, non-political organisation that encourages Australians to support Australian owned and made products and services. The organisation also aims to create awareness about the sell-off of Australian icons and brands to overseas interests.

How did Ausbuy begin?

Ausbuy’s founding president, Harry Wallace, formed the Australian Companies Institute as a result of his own business experience.

His 120 year old business had to be sold as the Australian printing ink industry, like many other industries, moved from being 80% Australian owned to 95% foreign owned.

In 1991 he established this Institute to give the type of support to Australian owned companies that he wished had been given to his own company. Ausbuy’s current President, Mike Gallagher, is continuing this support through the Ausbuy Guide, Connection Magazine and various other initiatives.
