NIFA 2024 | Meet the winner of the Business Achievement Award!

Congratulations Denni, on receiving the NIFA Business Achievement Award!
The Business Achievement Award recognises Ngali’s leadership as a fashion brand business showing both creative and commercial success in textiles and fashion, and positively impacting the Indigenous fashion sector. Ngali will receive a $3000 cash prize and a customised business mentoring development. The mentoring will be designed and developed in support of the winner’s business goals, and aims to enrich entrepreneurship and support fashion innovation.
Honouring exceptional success in both commercial and creative realms of textiles and fashion, this year’s Business Achievement Award is presented to Ngali by Denni Francisco. The label stands at the forefront of Indigenous fashion on an international scale, blending strong cultural expression with notable commercial prowess.
Ngali collaborates with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander artists, translating their remarkable works in painting, photography, and artistic creation into wearable clothing and collectibles.
This recognition marks Ngali’s fourth nomination at the NIFA, and the first time the label has been awarded the Business Achievement Award. Previously, Ngali has received the Fashion Designer Award, acknowledging its significant contributions to advancing the Indigenous fashion sector and ongoing business development.
