Video: Swimwear designs are arranged on a wall. Title: 'Going Global with Loleia Swim'. A dark-haired woman and a red-haired woman discuss them. Colourful bikinis dropped in a pile all feature a 'Loleia' tag. The dark-haired woman is interviewed on a couch. Text: "Leia, Founder & Designer, Loleia Swim." In split screen videos, young women show off colourful swimwear.
Audio: Leia: I'm Leia and I'm the founder of global swimwear label Loleia Swim, founded in Australia, in Perth, in my mum's spare bedroom. Now we ship worldwide.
Video: Leia throws a bikini into the camera, then laughs. Text: "What was the vision for the brand?" Photos of models in swimwear are displayed on walls. Leia and the redhead hold fabric swatches against the striped top Leia's wearing. Swimwear is packed in a cloth bag, then an Australia Post mailing box. Leia examines an array of promotional photos on a tablet. Leia, the redhead, and a brunette examine fabric.
Audio: Leia: The vision for Loleia came from the tropics and the '80s and knowing that it is always summer somewhere. So, in that sense, we've been able to grow the business, go global, and run a powerhouse from Perth.
Video: Text: "How did you navigate expanding globally." Leia parks near a bank of PO boxes. She takes large Australia Post sacks from her boot. At the service window, she shakes hands with an Australia Post employee, then shows him the sacks. He takes them inside. In the post office, satchels, envelopes and boxes are displayed under the sign 'Sending Overseas'. An employee tidies shelves. Leia slides parcels over the counter.
Audio: Leia: Everyone wants to grow their business, but, you know, you have to learn a lot fast. The MyPost Business app has helped me greatly shipping internationally. It's a very user-friendly platform, so you just log in, type the country you want to send to. It'll prompt you with what tariff codes you might need, importer codes, the costing it's going to, like, take per weight. Everything's there, and if you do need further assistance, like I call my local post office, Jag always helps me out, or there is online services and you can contact Australia Post and everyone's always really willing to help you.
Video: Text: "How has global expansion grown Loleia?" In an office, Leia and the redhead examine fabric designs on a computer.
Audio: Leia: Since growing Loleia globally, we now ship over 40% of our orders internationally. As soon as it, like, Australian summer ends, we're sending the exact same amount to the US customers.
Video: Text: "What surprised you most about shipping internationally with AusPost?" Leia wraps bikinis in yellow paper, puts them in a standard international post satchel, holds up the satchel, then gives a playful smile. Designs of colourful bikinis emerge from a printer, then are stuck on a wall. A labelled sketch of an outfit is updated.
Audio: Leia: So the other thing that is really cool about Australia Post and shipping internationally is that the more you ship, the more you save. So we've been able to get up to band five through shipping lots through Australia Post, and now the savings are, like, there's no other carrier service that can compare.
Video: Text: "How does it feel seeing Loleia Swim go global?" Videos show models wearing swimwear in a studio and at the beach. Swimwear is displayed on a ladder near a seaside railing. Models pose on a boat.
Audio: Leia: How does it feel knowing that Loleia is so global? It feels incredible. It is an out-of-body experience. I am very proud of myself. Having friends all over the world showing me pictures... Loleia's been spotted here, Loleia's been spotted there. So, pretty amazing.
