Behind the scenes, our policy team work tirelessly both with government and on the street in retail stores nationwide to ensure the voice real Australian retailers is heard.

We pro-actively bring together retailers, governments, law enforcement, community groups and many stakeholders to create positive, commercially-aware solutions on critical issues affecting retailers.

We present a unified voice for the Australian retail and food service industry to ensure your views are promoted and addressed at all levels of government.

Together we are one of Australian retail’s most powerful voices.

Many retailers across Australia are not aware that they can engage a retail leasing and property specialist to act on their behalf. Our leasing and property partners Lpc Cresa are one of Australia’s leading tenant-only advisory services businesses. That means, they work exclusively for you the tenant. Their advice is completely independent and biased to benefit you – rather than the landlord.

Drawing on their extensive experience in retail management and the property industry, Lpc Cresa can save you time, money and stress and ensure you:
• Never enter into a bad lease
• Never miss a critical date
• Never pay too much rent
• Never miss an opportunity to reduce rental costs.

We offer a huge range of industry events across Australia throughout the year including:

• Industry roundtables
