About Us

Most Australians own a torch but hands up who's got batteries for it..?

No judgement here. Life's busy and the list of things to sort out is long.

That's fine until it's not. Floods, pandemics, fires, an empty supermarket shelf on a Tuesday and no toilet paper, anywhere. It's a drama but it's no doomsday. It's just Tuesday with bad timing.

Common Goods Co. exists for the gap between fine and not fine.

The truth is, most Australian households aren't prepared for even a few days of disruption. The Red Cross knows it. Emergency Management Australia knows it. We all sort of know it. We just haven't got around to it yet.

Preparedness shouldn't need a bunker, a bulk-buying addiction, or a firm opinion about the apocalypse. It should just be common sense.

A quiet little cupboard of good stuff, ready to go, for the day Tuesday gets interesting.

Practical gear, thoughtfully chosen. No nonsense included.

Better to be looking at it than looking for it.
