Gabee Handbags
Gabee Products is a family owned business, established in 1949 by a young man named Heinz, who crafted a handbag to show his adoring love for his wife Gabrielle. She was so enchanted by the design, Heinz decided to start manufacturing “bags of difference” and thus Gabee was born.
Their son Frank has managed the business since 1969, and, joined by his wife Deany in the 1980’s they have continued the tradition of design and manufacture to expand Gabee’s range into new markets such as small leather goods, back packs, & luggage. Furthermore, Frank’s son Mark – a third generation family member – is also involved in the day-to-day operation of the business keeping Heinz’s passion alive.
Gabee is looking forward to celebrating 60 years of business in 2009, and the family philosophy and tradition for creating “bags of difference” will continue to meet the ever-changing trends of the Australian & New Zealand consumer for many more generations.

Other Information
Everybody around the world, including “Miss World Australia” wants to celebrate Gabee’s 60th year of Bags of Difference.
In 2009 Gabee will be celebrating 60 years of business, the family philosophy and tradition for creating “bags of difference” will continue to meet the ever-changing trends of the Australian & New Zealand consumer for many more generations.
As part of our 60th anniversary celebrations Gabee is proud to sponsor the “Miss World Australia” competition, which is not simply a judgment of ‘Beauty’. Finalists are empowered to be intelligent, outstanding young Ambassadors who are making a difference in our society.
The “Miss World” organisation has raised more than $450 million worldwide as part of its ‘Beauty with a Purpose’ initiatives and helped to redefine the judgment of beauty to ‘a Healthy Body Image’.
Gabee’s sponsorship will support the “Miss World Australia” organisation throughout 2008/9 with their charitable pursuits as well as promoting the Gabee brand amongst the many participants and organisations involved in the “Miss World Australia” competitions.
We wish “Miss World Australia 2008” Katie Richardson all the best in the “Miss World Australia” final and look forward to her promoting our Gabee brand through her network of publicity, fashion parades, television appearances and charity events
