AUSTRALIAN COUNCIL OF WOOL EXPORTERS AND PROCESSORS INC

             

ACWEP represents the interests of wool buying firms which traditionally have serviced most of their woolsupplies from the auction selling system.  Today, most of these firms export either greasy or semi-processed wool, including tops, to customers overseas.

 

It is recognised by Government and other industry sectors as being the national representative voice for auction buying interests and represents its members on various industry committees and at meetings with other industry sectors.

 

State and regional based associations of auction buyers date back to the 1890s, with the first national representative body established in 1946.  The national body took its current name in 1986.
