Introducing Guest Speaker James Ajaka

Along with Tim Pethick, Andrew Binetter and David Gordon, James Ajaka is a founding member of Nudie Foods Australia Pty Ltd.

Nudie sold it's first drink in Waverley, Sydney on January 8, 2003. In the three years since Nudie has grown to a national operation behind a brand that has focused on engaging and delighting consumers on a personal level through unconventional marketing.

Today Nudie is rated the 10th most influential brand in the Asia Pacific and can be found in over 5,000 stores nationally including Woolworths, Coles and McDonalds.

As the Nudie Sales & Marketing Director, James has greatly enjoyed the wild journey and the challenge of building a national brand from scratch with very little money, a great team and loads of fun.

James has 9 years marketing experience including 2 years as Marketing Manager for World Boxing Champion Kostya Tszyu. During the time he worked with Kostya he developed and launched the Tszyu Crew & KT Boxing brand in Australia, North America and Russia. James is also responsible for Kostya's DVD with Sony, book with ABC publications, clothing range with Rebel Sports and memorabilia line with The Helping Hand Group.
