Selling Pork Pies and Haggis in Australia
BRITstralian ®
06/13/21 • 18 min
Jim Arrowsmith from Chorley in Lancashire arrived in Australia as a 20-year-old backpacker in 2006.
After realising there was a huge gap in the Australian market for British foods, Jim and his mate Pete Tonge (real name) decided to make their own pork pies.
The pair of British travellers set up a pork pie factory on a pig farm on the edge of the Australian outback.
Fifteen years later, they now sell pork pies, haggis, black pudding and other British goods across Australia.

The experienced motorcyclist was traveling from Karratha in the state’s far north down to Mandurah, just south of Perth in 2018 after a two week stint of shift work.

My Story. A Brief Introduction.
BRITstralian ®
04/25/21 • 5 min
Hi, I’m Anna Moran. I’m a Britstralian from Leicester in the UK, now living in Perth in Western Australia.
I came to Australia in May 2011. I was 26 and I came here on a one year working holiday visa. I initially had no intention of staying in Australia and planned to get back to London to continue with my journalism career.
After seeing the opportunities and beautiful lifestyle I made the decision to stay a little longer.
During that time, I ended up having a mental breakdown which forced me to face many of my fears. Fortunately, it encouraged me to repair many broken relationships from my past.
Ten years later I have met a lovely Australian man and now that it looks like I could be here for a wee while longer, I have decided to produce a podcast about Brits living in Australia.
