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.
