The company was founded in 2017 by proud Bundjalung man Brad Nagle. Since then, the company has grown to 18 staff. The company’s namesake ‘Kirra’ is reflective of the beach location in Queensland where Nagle’s grandfather spent time, and also means ‘leaf’ in the local language -- displaying an important connection to the land and country.
