Abstract:
|
Aromababy, a leading natural baby care brand in Australia,
was founded by Catherine Arfi (Catherine) in 1994. Catherine chose to start her
own line of organic baby care products when she realized that they were no good
natural and organic skincare products in the market for the baby she was
expecting. Aromababy had a comprehensive range of products made of pure,
certified organic ingredients with therapeutic properties. These products were
free from petrochemicals, artificial fragrances, or animal ingredients. After
their success in the domestic market, Aromababy products were exported to
countries like Hong Kong, Singapore, Korea, Belgium, Holland, USA, the UK, and
the Middle East. |
