Beautifully designed products for independent Australian retailers
Bobangles is the exclusive Australian wholesale distributor of ten distinctive international gift, puzzle, stationery and lifestyle brands.
Australian-owned and operated since 1993, we supply independent gift shops, bookstores, museum stores, toy shops and design-led retailers across the country.
Thoughtfully chosen. Exclusively distributed.
We believe the best independent stores deserve products that feel considered, distinctive and a little unexpected.
That is why we work with a focused collection of international brands known for their creativity, quality and strong visual identity. From beautifully illustrated puzzles and archival stationery to clever gifts, creative play and personality-filled socks, every range is selected with independent retail in mind.
Our ten exclusively distributed brands are:
- Cavallini & Co
- Dean Morris Cards
- eeBoo
- Floss & Rock
- New York Puzzle Company
- OOLY
- Project Genius
- Rex London
- Socksmith
- WerkShoppe
Bobangles is a trade-only wholesale business. We do not sell directly to the public.
Where we started
Proudly Australian since 1993
Bobangles began in a Canberra garage in 1993, with a small collection of greeting cards and bangles and a simple idea: to bring interesting, well-designed products to Australian retailers.
The name still carries a little of that beginning.
From those early days, Bobangles has grown into one of Australia's longest-established independent gift distributors, representing international brands exclusively and supplying retailers across the country.
The business entered a new chapter under new ownership on 2 February 2026. Since then, we have welcomed a new team and moved into a larger, purpose-built office, showroom and warehouse in Torquay, Victoria.
While plenty has changed over more than three decades, the foundation of the business remains the same.
We still choose our brands carefully. We still carry our ranges in depth. And we still care about how our products perform and present in our stockists' stores.

What makes Bobangles different
A focused collection, carried in depth
We are not trying to be everything to everyone.
Rather than representing hundreds of disconnected ranges, we work closely with a focused group of brands that we understand, support and believe in.
We carry these brands in depth, giving retailers access to complete and substantial collections rather than a small rotating selection.
Design comes first
Our range naturally leans towards illustration, creativity, paper goods, cultural collections and heritage-inspired design.
From Cavallini's archival imagery and eeBoo's artist-led puzzles to WerkShoppe's contemporary artwork and Rex London's colourful gift-shop staples, the common thread is thoughtful design and genuine retail appeal.
Trade-only, always
Bobangles is built to support retailers.
Our wholesale store is available exclusively to approved trade customers. We do not sell directly to consumers, and we do not supply dropshippers, marketplace resellers or businesses whose primary focus is discount retailing.
This helps protect our brands, our stockists and the long-term value of the ranges we represent.
Independently Australian
We are an Australian-owned business supporting independent Australian retailers.
Our team is small, knowledgeable and closely involved in everything from selecting products and supporting customers to receiving stock and dispatching orders.

Our commitment to the planet
We care about where our products come from, what they are made from and how they are packaged.
Wherever possible, we partner with brands that are actively working towards more responsible materials, ethical manufacturing practices, reduced packaging and less waste.
Several of our brand partners use recycled or responsibly sourced materials and continue to improve the environmental impact of their products and packaging. eeBoo, in particular, has built sustainability into the way its products are designed and produced.
Our aim is to offer products that independent retailers can feel good about sharing with their customers, supported by brands that take their environmental responsibilities seriously.
