Coopers exec to chair Australian Made Campaign

The executive chairman of Coopers Brewery, Glenn Cooper, has been appointed as chairman of not-for-profit organisation Australian Made Campaign.

The Australian Made Campaign administers the green-and-gold Australian Made, Australian Grown (AMAG) logo.

After serving as a director for seven years, Cooper now takes the helm of the national board which consists of ten directors who are elected by the Australian Business community from the Australian Chamber of Commerce Network and the National Farmers’ Federation.

“I am very passionate about local manufacturing and look forward to working with my board colleagues and the team at AMCL over the next few years to lift the profile of this important campaign even further,” Cooper said following his election.

Australian Made Campaign CEO, Ian Harrison, said Australian Made welcomed Cooper to the position. “We look forward to his leadership in directing this very important campaign to help businesses promote their genuine Aussie products both locally and internationally,” he said.

“The famous Aussie Made logo is a very valuable tool for Australian consumers and businesses - our job is to spread that message.”
