He was one of the leaders in developing the Golden Circle fruit cannery in Northgate, Brisbane, Queensland.[1] Son of farmer, John Francis Flewell-Smith, and Frances Maude, née Stephens, Flewell-Smith was born in Lowood on 4 March 1898.[2] Throwing away his desire to work in medicine, Flewell-Smith overtook his father's farm when he left for the war. He later began fruit farming in Bracken Ridge after returning to Australia.[3] In 1935 he was appointed as manager of the Committee of Direction of Fruit Marketing, succeeding W. Ranger. He previously held a position as a scholar at Ipswich Boys' Grammar School, the same school where he studied and was awarded the prize for best Junior pass in the state.

In 1921 Flewell-Smith married Mary Darling. They had three children, two daughters and a son.[5]
