Graham Firrell is a visionary entrepreneur who has carved a niche for himself in the health and wellness industry. As the founder and CEO of GoWild Australia, he has introduced the world to the Kakadu Plum (aka gubinge), a superfood native to the coastal outback of Northern and Western Australia. Under his leadership, GoWild Australia has become a global supplier of the gubinge fruit and has developed all-natural liquid extracts, whole fruit powders, and process solutions from Indigenous Australian traditions.

The ‘Koala-fications’ of the Kakadu Plum

For over 60,000 years, Indigenous Australian communities have wild-harvested and used the Kakadu Plum as a medicinal, nutritious, and tasty food source. Today, this amazing superfood is recognized not only as the world’s richest source of natural Vitamin C, but also for containing over 50 various identified nutritive compounds. GoWild Australia sources the Kakadu Plum exclusively from native communities and cooperatives across Northern and Western Australia. These communities grow and supply this special ‘super fruit’ from sustainably managed and naturally wild forests or semi-wild plantations under their direct control.

So, we’ve put together five qualities that we believe all businesses should look for in a nonprofit partner.
