Business Overview
Founded in 1988 in response to drought and a need for off-farm income, Courela began as a humble operation manufacturing shearing trousers and singlets from Australian-made fabrics. With roots in farming and shearing, the proprietors grew the brand to become a trusted name across South Australia, Western Australia, Victoria, and New South Wales, expanding their product range to include jumpers and other durable, industry-specific apparel.
With a reputation for quality, longevity, and wearability, Courela's garments are proudly designed and manufactured in-house, with embroidery, screen printing, and offshore manufacturing capabilities also established.
