We were all so very proud to see Kari Jelekainen; founder of Aura Sports running with the Queens Baton recently. Kari was equally as proud to have one of his sons and his grandson present to share the experience. Kari says “When I moved to Australia from Finland, I found this to be a very welcoming Country full of opportunity and diversity.

It was in Australia that I started this business, met my wife and started a family”. “Now that I am retired, I am very proud to see that my sons have the same passion for this industry and have chosen not only to stay in, but to grow the family business, to greater heights than I had ever dreamt possible”
Go Kari!!!!
