Vicinity Centres

From Chadstone to Karratha, and Chatswood to Elizabeth, Vicinity's 60+ destinations span the breadth of our great sunburnt country, enriching community experiences at every touchpoint. Our destinations serve as important hubs for our communities, whether it's in housing essential grocery stores or pharmacies, offering Australia's largest collection of luxury retail brands, or providing a spot to share a bite with family and friends with places to dine offering cuisine from every corner of the planet. We are at the forefront of our industry, challenging ourselves to create the future of Australian living. Our destinations are evolving, delivering on a mixed-use strategy to offer new experiences to maintain their market-leading positions. We're on an exciting journey to build mini-cities, adding residential and hotel living, commercial office space and leisure activities to our leading retail and dining options. We manage over 2.5-million square metres of leasable space and with such a large footprint, we know our commitment to sustainability can have a real impact on the everyday lives of our communities. Our sustainability journey is never-ending but to date has seen us focus on social sustainability in the form of a Modern Slavery Statement and responsible procurement policies, and on environmental sustainability with our market-leading $75-million investment in solar energy systems at more than 20 destinations nationally, and waste reduction practices. With so much going on, change is the only constant at Vicinity, and we love it!
