HISTORY

The company was originally established in Melbourne as a wool trading company in 1972 managed by Mr Edward (Ted) Robinson.

Since 1980 it has operated in the historic Collins Bros Union No. 2 Woollen Mill in Geelong (now known as Riversdale Mill).

In 1988 the Company purchased the mill property, now named Riversdale Mill and over the ensuing years, new wool processing machinery was acquired and installed expanding the production capacity.

The company is now owned and managed by second generation family member Jim Robinson.
