Industry Code : G5122
This industry is part of the Retail Trade division in Australia. Operators in this industry specialise in retailing a broad range of fruit and vegetable produce including fresh, citrus and stone fruit, fresh and root vegetables, etc. These products are purchased from domestic wholesalers often operating out of markets. Operators then retail these goods, through their stores to the general public for private consumption. Retailers also sell these goods to other businesses such as cafes and restaurants.
It is important to note that those entities which primarily operate as fruit and vegetable growers, processors or wholesalers are excluded from this industry. Also excluded are operators of supermarket and other grocery stores and convenience stores as these retailers offer a broad range of general merchandise along with butcher, bakery and deli items.
