My customers’ eyes light up when they tell me how they use the bag, or how their partners have stolen theirs, or they’re telling all their friends because they genuinely love it.

Meg’s story
Hi! I’m glad I’m not the only one that loves reading about the people behind a brand. I’m Meg, the founder of Array – I live in the small coastal town of Yamba on the beautiful NSW North Coast.
Bring on the pockets!
I have two young boys, and from baby to toddler to pre-schooler to school age, I’ve packed thousands of bags with countless things - spare clothes, nappies, wipes, water bottles, food – you know the drill. I was always looking for the right bag that could hold it all, but I could never find the right bag, or the thing I’m looking for in said bag. So, I created my own! A casual, life-friendly bag, with pockets. Lots of pockets.
The inspiration
Array was inspired by the ‘nappy bag’ – they have soooo many handy pockets and I wanted them in my everyday life, not just parent-life. When I first found out I was pregnant, one of the first items I started googling was ‘nappy bag’ – and I never actually found one that suited me or my lifestyle, or one that was affordable.
This sat with me for a long time, and eventually in 2021 I embarked on this journey to create my own – as you do! From a nappy bag to tote bag nirvana – I hope that you find my ARRAY bags as helpful as I do, not only in parent-life but everyday life too.
Where we are now
Array has grown beyond my wildest dreams! In 2023, I welcomed two amazing women to help manage orders and warehouse operations. Despite this, I still handle many aspects of the business myself—from answering emails and running social media, to designing bags and packing orders.
We’ve recently moved from a garage setup to a warehouse in Yamba’s industrial estate, offering free pick-up for local customers or those passing through. We have some exciting plans for the future and are already preparing for 2025, all while continuing to offer our best-selling styles.
