About The Community Grocer

The Community Grocer is a Melbourne-based not-for-profit social enterprise established in 2014. It runs fresh food markets across Melbourne with a focus on improving local food systems in low-income communities.

Its public offer centres on fresh fruit and vegetables, including culturally appropriate produce sold through weekly community markets. Research cited by the University of Melbourne notes that more than 150 types of fresh fruit and vegetables have been available through the markets.

This is a community food access organisation rather than a conventional restaurant wholesaler. Delivery coverage, wholesale accounts and hospitality ordering terms were not verified publicly, so any restaurant supply relationship should be confirmed directly.
