Retail Markets Overview

Retail markets operate in most Australian cities and regional centres. There are established permanent markets with longstanding traders, consistent quality and a dedicated following of customers. Other markets comprise of casual traders that come together to trade on a monthly or seasonal basis. Many of these markets include flower traders. Most sell by bunch or in bulk and do not offer specialist floristry skills, but do provide the opportunity for the customer to buy flowers in a market environment at retail market price. Buying is up to the customer so always check quality and freshness and our special tips on buying in this website.

We advise retail markets offer a unique shopping experience where you can often find a good bargain, but do check quality and freshness of fragile flowers as these can often be damaged by exposure to sun, wind and temperature changes. Retail markets that sell fresh flowers and source their product through central wholesale markets are listed below.
