Opened in 2015 and operating from a purpose-built 67-hectare site in Epping, Melbourne Market plays a vital role in our food and flower supply chain. It connects local growers, wholesalers, and independent retailers, moving millions of dollars in fresh produce across Victoria and beyond every single day.
