Indigenous-owned toilet paper company Yarn'n has partnered with Bunzl Australia and New Zealand in a new distribution deal that will make its sustainable toilet paper more accessible to businesses across the country.
The partnership will see Yarn'n's business-to-business Our Bunji range integrated into Bunzl's national distribution network.
The deal enables organisations across Australia and New Zealand to purchase Yarn'n's FSC-certified, 100 per cent recycled toilet tissue, which combines environmental responsibility with cultural storytelling.
Founded in 2023 by Wiradjuri man Lane Stockton and former Australian rugby player David "Crofty" Croft, Yarn'n donates 50 per cent of its profits to the Yalari Foundation.
The not-for-profit provides boarding school scholarships to Indigenous students from regional and remote communities around the country.
Mr Stockton said the partnership with Bunzl marks a major milestone for the business.
"Partnering with Bunzl marks an exciting step forward for Yarn'n, and together we are driving meaningful change at scale," he said.
"Their dedication to Indigenous supplier diversity, reconciliation, and sustainability reflects our own commitment to creating meaningful community impact.
"With Bunzl's extensive distribution network spanning Australia, New Zealand, and beyond, this partnership enables us to amplify the reach of First Nations businesses, foster cultural connection, and deliver ethical, environmentally responsible products to a broader audience."
The brand has grown rapidly since launching online, expanding into almost 1,000 Woolworths supermarkets in March 2025, while continuing to offer subscription and one-time purchases directly through its website.
The packaging and product design are intended to spark conversations around cultural connection in everyday spaces like homes, workplaces, and public facilities.
Bunzl Australia and New Zealand Managing Director Mark Phelan welcomed the partnership, saying it reflects the company's commitment to supporting Indigenous suppliers.
"We are delighted to partner with Yarn'n; an Australian company driven by purpose, culture, connection, Country, and community impact," he said.
"Yarn'n's commitment to empowering First Nations businesses aligns perfectly with Bunzl's ongoing efforts to support Indigenous supplier diversity, employment opportunities, and reconciliation.
"Together, we are making a tangible difference while upholding our shared values of sustainability and community empowerment."
The partnership adds further momentum to Yarn'n's growth as a social enterprise, helping to expand its reach while maintaining its focus on cultural education, ethical manufacturing, and community-led change.
