Melbourne Market
Melbourne Market
Melbourne Market is Victoria’s wholesale fruit, vegetable and cut flower trading centre, one of six central fresh produce markets in Australia.
Operating from a purpose-built facility on a 67-hectare site at Epping, the Market provides the critical link between growers, wholesalers, retailers and the fresh produce supply chain.
Approximately, 2,750 businesses use the Market as a base, buying and selling fresh produce in the early hours of the morning for distribution across Victoria and Australia.
Over 2,000 individual fruit and vegetable buyers, representing independent greengrocers, supermarkets, restaurants and food processors, source their produce direct from the Market. Many more receive deliveries and consignments from the Market.
Up to 120,000 square metres of warehousing space provides for the integration of supply chain logistics within the Market itself, and is the largest warehousing precinct of any central market in Australia.
