Quiksilver is one of the world's most iconic surf and lifestyle brands. Founded in Torquay, Australia, in 1969 by Alan Green and John Law, it initially revolutionized surfing through the development of specialized boardshorts. Over the decades, the brand expanded into a global lifestyle powerhouse, catering to board sports enthusiasts across surfing, snowboarding, and skateboarding.

While the brand's creative heart remains tied to surf culture, its manufacturing is distributed globally to accommodate its massive scale. Production takes place in various countries, including China, Vietnam, Bangladesh, and Indonesia, depending on the specific textile requirements and product lines.

Today, Quiksilver is no longer an independent Australian company. It is part of the Boardriders, Inc. portfolio, which was acquired by Authentic Brands Group (ABG) in 2023. Headquartered in New York City, ABG is a global brand development and licensing company that manages a vast array of high-profile entertainment and lifestyle brands.
