Suntory Oceania has unveiled a new Indigenous artwork at its Swanbank facility in Ipswich, Queensland.
The 90-metre installation was created in collaboration with the Yuggera people, the traditional custodians of the land, and reflects the company's commitment to building strong relationships with local Indigenous communities.
The work was led by Yuggera Elder Uncle Eddie Ruska, with cultural guidance provided throughout the process.
Kalkadoon, Quandamooka and Waanyi woman Aunty Kylie Hill created the three-panel artwork, which tells the story of the local land and its people.
Aunty Kylie Hill said the collaboration honoured the cultural heritage and stories of the Yuggera people.
"Creating this artwork has been a deeply meaningful experience. Working alongside Uncle Eddie to tell the stories of the Yuggera people has been particularly special," she said.
"Together, we've brought their rich cultural heritage and their enduring connection to the land to life. I'm honoured to be part of a project that celebrates and respects our history."
The first panel is based on the Rainbow Serpent Dreamtime story, where Moondagurra emerged from underground to carve the Brisbane River.
This story connects to Suntory Oceania's own 'creation story' as it prepares to complete its new facility in Ipswich, linking water to its role as a vital and protected natural resource.
The second and third panels reference the Battle of One Tree Hill, one of the largest battles in the Australian frontier wars, held at what is now Tabletop Mountain in Toowoomba.
These panels symbolise the unity of First Nations people in overcoming adversity and celebrating shared triumphs.
Suntory Oceania is a partnership between Suntory Global Spirits and Suntory Beverage & Food, bringing together over 40 leading brands across Australia and New Zealand.
The company is investing in a $400 million carbon-neutral manufacturing facility at Swanbank, the largest single FMCG investment in Australia in the past decade.
Swanbank site Operations Director, Mr Paul Woods, said the artwork is part of a wider commitment to community.
"Our 'Growing for Good' philosophy is about more than just business growth; it's about making a positive impact on the communities we serve," Mr Woods said.
"This artwork is a testament to our commitment to sustainability, cultural respect, and fostering strong relationships with First Nations communities."
The mural now stands outside the facility for all visitors and staff to view.
It serves as a permanent reminder of the Yuggera people's deep spiritual connection to the land and celebrates the brilliance of life and truth of Country as shared by its custodians.
