Nominated right here: Australian Made recognised internationally for campaigns

Australian Made Campaign (AMCL) is proud to share that two of its major advertising campaigns, Made Right Here and Austra-Lee-an Made Week 2026, have been nominated for multiple awards on the international stage!

Made Right Here

Made Right Here is Australian Made Campaign's largest national advertising campaign ever. The campaign was made possible by a $20 million investment by the Australian Government that enabled AMCL, a not-for-profit public company, to enhance public awareness and encourage Australians to support local manufacturers, job creation and the economy by buying Australian-made products. 

The Made Right Here TV commercial depicts the iconic Australian Made kangaroo logo coming to life, bouncing through scenes from sectors such as construction, manufacturing and beyond to demonstrate what ‘Made Right Here’ truly means. It shone a spotlight on homegrown innovators, showing how supporting bold Australian ideas creates jobs and drives economic growth.

Made Right Here has been shortlisted as a finalist for two awards:

• The Drum Awards 2026: Advertising: Charity, Public Sector/Government & Education category
• The 2026 B&T Awards: Best CTV & Video Campaign
  
  

Austra-Lee-an Made Week 2026

The sixth annual Australian Made Week campaign ran from 18 to 24 May 2026, highlighting the best of Australian manufacturers, makers and growers. Australian Made Week is the only initiative of its kind, platforming local manufacturers and encouraging shoppers and businesses alike to support Australian products carrying the green-and-gold kangaroo logo.

Naming the week after himself, much-loved Aussie funny man and media personality Andy Lee took on the new gig as the ambassador for in the cheeky TV commercial, sitting atop an throne made entirely out of authentic Australian Made products.

Austra-Lee-an Made Week 2026 has been shortlisted for one award:
