Creating a Market we are all proud of
The Melbourne Market is a unique environment made up of people from diverse backgrounds. It’s a great place where people work hard, look out for one another, are generous, and enjoy having a laugh together.
We all want a Melbourne Market where everyone feels included, where people feel safe and are treated with respect. A place free of racism, sexism, discrimination, harassment, violence and bullying – and currently, feedback from many of you suggests we need to do better as a market community.
Let’s work together to stamp out the behaviours we don’t want and to continue to work towards building a Melbourne Market that we are all proud to be a part of.
We’re looking for a range of people, from business principals to employees, sellers, and buyers alike, to volunteer and join our existing working group who are leading this cultural change initiative with the MMA.
Our working group members come together for an hour once every 2-3 months to share their advice and perspectives, test ideas and continue to develop the strategy that will create a more inclusive Melbourne Market.
Together with our working group, we look forward to sharing campaigns and resources to assist businesses to create a safe and inclusive environment for all.

We all have a role to play. We are Stronger Together. |

As the weather gets cooler, it’s a timely reminder to protect ourselves as we head into flu season. Annual flu vaccinations are recommended in April and May, as protection peaks three to four months post-vaccination. Those over the age of 65 are eligible for a free flu vaccination.
