Hanes Brands Australasia

Hanes Brands Australasia has come a long way from manufacturing Dunlop bicycle tyres in 1893. Known as Pacific Brands prior to the acquisition in July 2016 by the American multinational Hanes Brands Inc, today we are famous for our portfolio of truly iconic brands, including Bonds, Champion, Sheridan and Berlei and many more. Our brands are sold through our extensive national retail network of over 500 Bonds, Champion, Sheridan and Bras'n'Things stores, our hugely successful e-commerce websites and via our wholesale partners. Headquartered in Melbourne Australia, Hanes Brands Australasia operates throughout Australia, New Zealand, China, Indonesia, and the United Kingdom. The passion of our 4,400 employees is the driving force behind our success. We are part of Hanes Brands Inc, the world's largest manufacturer and marketer of basic apparel brands. We at Hanes Brands take pride in its strong reputation for ethical business practices: we are the only apparel producer to ever be honoured by the Great Place to Work Institute for its workplace practices in Central America and the Caribbean, and are ranked No. 167 on the Forbes magazine list of America's Best Large Employers. For eight consecutive years, Hanes Brands Inc has won the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Energy Star sustained excellence/partner of the year award: again, the only apparel company to earn sustained excellence honours.
