Aboriginal retailers face persistent barriers—rising costs, limited access to markets, and policies that rarely deliver real opportunity. Key barriers are:
To overcome these hurdles, Aboriginal retailers need to be fully integrated into the wider retail sector. We bridge these gaps through advocacy, collaboration, and tailored support, ensuring Aboriginal retailers are included, visible, and set up for long-term success.
We deliver practical support and advocacy, grounded in Aboriginal culture and knowledge, to help members overcome challenges, access new opportunities, and build sustainable businesses.
In 2025, we are shaping our governance for lasting impact, growing our membership, and forging powerful partnerships.
A major priority is launching our new website and member directory to increase visibility and provide a central hub for online opportunities and webinars.
As we grow, we balance tailored support for individual members with collective initiatives for the sector.
Collaboration is key, we’re working together to ensure Aboriginal retailers have the recognition and support to thrive, grow, and leave a lasting legacy in Australian retail.
