The Aussie Brand That Could

The Aussie Brand That Could

Author: Broadsheet August 17, 2023 Duration: 15:13

When Nic Pestalozzi, Nathan Dalah and Casper Ettelson launched Fishbowl in 2016, the trio were still at university. Seven years later, with 40 stores under their belt across three Aussie states, Fishbowl’s signature mix of fresh produce and bold Japanese flavours has been a runaway success. Nic joins Around Town to discuss growing a brand that still feels local, overseas expansion and launching a more affordable street food menu. 

Featured on today's episode:

Every other Tuesday, Broadsheet Sydney: Around Town offers a quiet conversation with someone shaping the city's character. This isn't about headlines or trends, but the people behind the places and ideas that define daily life here. You might hear from a chef who quietly reimagined a neighborhood's dining scene, or an artist whose work changes how we see a familiar street. The discussion could just as easily turn to the craft of a local distiller or the vision of a small shop owner whose taste influences what we wear. Hosted by Broadsheet, each episode is a deliberate look at the intersections of food, art, fashion, and society, revealing how creative minds build the culture we experience. Tuning into this podcast feels like pulling up a chair at a corner table with the most interesting person in the room-the stories are specific, the impact is tangible, and the focus is always on the human element driving Sydney forward. It’s for anyone curious about the why and the who behind the city's vibrant surface.
