The Geelong Textile Group, the businesses that supplied the material for the Australian Test Cricket teams’ iconic baggy green caps, made famous by every captain including Sir Donald Bradman and Ricky Ponting are up for sale. If the company’s sporting heritage is not sufficient to pique your interest, the fabric used for the seating in the Sydney Opera House; and the design and manufacture of wool bunting material for Sydney’s AMP Historical Building, which features pure Australian Merino wool, all originated at Geelong Dyeing and Geelong Textile Australia.
