Marnka & Co. at Supply Nation Connect 2026

On Wednesday 12 August 2026, Marnka & Co. took its place at Booth B24 at Supply Nation Connect 2026, held at the Perth Convention and Exhibition Centre. Connect brings Indigenous businesses together with the buyers, procurement teams and partners who work with them.

Coffee with a story, poured all day

From the moment the doors opened, our team poured sample-size coffees for buyers, partners and fellow Supply Nation businesses. Every blend carries a name in the Arabana language, and every cup started a conversation about where that name comes from.

We offered six milks, from full cream to oat, soy, almond and coconut, and took real care over allergens: a dedicated jug and cloth for every milk, and separate steam wands for dairy and plant-based milks.

Great coffee is easy to find. Great coffee with a story is not.

That was the thread running through the day. For cafés, workplaces and gift givers, coffee that carries Arabana language, Country and an artist behind the bag gives people something to talk about with every cup.

The team on the stand

Managing Director Christine Sindely led the stand with Commercial Manager Geoff Woolrich, our barista Rob, and Sheena, who together kept the coffee and the conversations flowing from setting up to packing down.

With thanks

Getting to Connect took many hands. Our thanks go to:

• Supply Nation, for bringing Indigenous business and buyers together
• PAV, for our stand set-up and screen
• The Alternative Milk Co., for the generous supply of plant-based milks and the matching milk jugs
• Kevin Wilson and Nani Creative, for the artwork and design that make our bags what they are
