BAF verification

Directory listing and verification are not the same thing.

Peter Simmonds, founder of Buy Australian First

A message from the founder

A clearer way to find Australian businesses and know what has been verified.

Buy Australian First was founded to make Australian businesses easier to discover and Australian ownership and manufacturing claims easier to understand.

The directory helps Australians find businesses. BAF verification adds a separate evidence-based trust layer, so consumers can make more informed choices.

Recognising early support

Founding Businesses

Founding Business recognition acknowledges eligible businesses that support Buy Australian First in its early stages.

This recognition is separate from verification. It does not replace assessment, influence approval or allow a business to buy verified status.
