BACKGROUND:
Sun 19 Nov 2023
Tattarang, owned by Australian businessman Andrew “Twiggy” Forrest and his wife Nicola, has acquired Akubra from the Keir family, who trace their ownership back 147 years.
"This is a day for Akubra, a day for Kempsey, a day for Australia to keep a fantastic brand at home," Mr Forrest said.
