Duane Cunnington

"Growing up on a dairy farm in North Central Victoria gave Duane a strong rural background and a deep understanding of the agricultural community, helping him relate well to Gallagher’s customers.

While Duane’s professional journey initially began in the corporate sales world, his time at Xerox felt familiar due to the pioneering spirit of both companies: just as Xerox developed the first photocopier, Gallagher introduced the first electric fence. This innovative legacy is one of the key reasons he was drawn to Gallagher.

More recently, Duane worked as a Territory Manager for Shoof, covering all of eastern Victoria and Tasmania. He appreciates the opportunity to connect with rural and regional farmers and stores, sharing, “The people are what makes this country great.”

In his spare time, Duane is passionate about supporting his two sons’ football careers. For the past four years, he has coached and served as president of the Neerim South Junior Football Club, where his sons play, and he enjoys life in Neerim South with his wife, Annette."
