About Us

Clipper International Corp. incorporating Clipper Trading Co Pty Ltd, was established in 1956. As the company grew it recognised the vast potential of the outdoor & travel industry, and changed it's focus in 1982 to meet the growing consumer trends. This resulted in the birth of the now famous Australian travel and outdoor brand, Caribee. 

Believe it or not, we are an Aussie company with a South American derived name. Caribee’s name comes from a South American piranha like species know scientifically as the Pygocentrus nattereri or Caribe. Its compact size masks the fact that it is a dominant and resilient species in its environment. A creature to be taken seriously.  At Caribee we take this same approach with our brand and products.

Caribee designs and develops the latest equipment for the outdoor and urban environment. Our many years of experience has allowed us to build the Caribee brand into Australia’s largest and most trusted travel and outdoor brand. Caribee incorporates both Australian and International trends to develop equipment that not only appeals, but satisfies the consumers demands. Our country’s love affair with traveling has seen the Caribee brand visit the farthest corners of the globe and return with praises. We take our business and brand seriously.

Caribee is consumer-focused. We bring to the market creative product designs with practical and user friendly features. Our team is youthful and energetic, that brings to Caribee the desire to achieve the highest possible outcome. Coupled with our years of experience, this enthusiasm has made Caribee one of the most respected and innovative outdoor and urban brands in Australia.

Caribee prides itself on innovation, quality and value for money - from our design and development methodology, to the way we run our business. We are a forward thinking company and position ourselves in the market as a leader.
