About the Hub

Member-only resources in one easy place

Backed by decades of advocacy, the Hub brings together everything your membership gives you — from cutting your merchant card payment costs and accessing exclusive supplier content, to plain-English interactive guides on compliance, quick skills training, and tools for employment, leasing, Google Business Profiles, AI and more.

It incorporates great content from your regular suppliers that you can use on your socials and website — and you can find new suppliers too.

You’ll also stay ahead with timely news on the campaigns we’re fighting on your behalf, and you can register for online and face-to-face events.

Whatever kind of local store you run, the Local Retailers Hub helps you save money, stay informed and have a stronger voice in Canberra.
