The new centre will be anchored by a Woolworths supermarket that will incorporate curated local lines of groceries from produce to preserves. Joining the brand-new supermarket will be six thoughtfully curated boutique specialty stores including Hara Sushi, Picnic & Hobbs, Gazman, Coastal Kids and Mano Wraps.
Woolworths will be opening its doors on Wednesday 22nd May, and the specialty stores will be opening in the coming months.
Customers will have ample parking with more than 200 car spaces around the centre, as well as new state-of-the-art amenities.
Two stunning large-scale public artworks adorn the sides of the brand-new building.
To the West, local artist Ian Mutch has conveyed the feeling of being surrounded by crystal clear waters and the beauty of how the bush meets the bay near Dunsborough. The mural features the uplifting flight of several Terns, a beautiful bird species which can be spotted on nearby shores.
To the East, ‘Ngari dreaming’ (Salmon dreaming), by Indigenous artist Josh Whiteland of Koomal Dreaming can be seen highlighting a story about the salmon migrating for Bunuru season, bringing all the noongar moort families to the coast to celebrate. Symbols in the ngari salmon depict local songs, fire, food and families gathering.
Customers can collect a complimentary re-usable shopping tote bag on opening day
A unique addition to the Dunsborough Marketplace development, are the four boutique rooftop apartments that will be available for bookings from the end of June. These two-bedroom short stay apartments offer a premium accommodation experience in the heart of Dunsborough.
The project has created dozens of local jobs during construction, and the centre will continue to back local employment with more retail, hospitality and customer service jobs supported following the opening.
