Australian Stationery Brand Debuts in America

One of Australia’s fastest growing creative brands is arriving in the United States to spread its messages of conservation, and North American wildlife is in the spotlight.

Marini Ferlazzo was founded by Clare and Nathan Ferlazzo, a mother and son team that partner with non-for-profit organisations to support the protection of endangered species and educate the public on conservation and animal welfare.

Nathan Ferlazzo, 33, spends his days drawing incredibly detailed pen and ink illustrations. The latest collection celebrates North American Wildlife, featuring icons such as the Bald Eagle, Brown Bear and Bison. These artworks are part of a collection of eight illustrations Ferlazzo has designed, under his label Marini Ferlazzo, to raise funds and awareness for wildlife conservation. A share of profits from the range is donated to World Animal Protection.

Australian retail outlets have had huge success with the products – Marini Ferlazzo is stocked in over 300 stores around Australia.  The newest North American collection is available as greeting cards, bookmarks, calendars, magnets and more. Marini Ferlazzo produce the ranges in Australia and use 100% recycled papers. Their greeting cards were featured in the 2015 Oscar Goodie Bags and Maxwell & Williams have recently collaborated with Nathan and Clare to create a set of fine china mugs.

Marini Ferlazzo is part of a growing movement of entrepreneurs using the power of business to solve social and environmental problems.
