A new shopping centre in Clyde is well underway, as the %18.5 million hub now has 70 per cent of its amenities leased.
The centre, located at 1895 Ballarto Road in Clyde, home to a 2140-square-metre space, is still under construction, but will soon bring the much-needed convenience to the growing community.
A supermarket, alongside 15 specialty tenancies and a 146-space early learning education centre, will call the Farm Gate Local shopping centre home once it completes later this year.
Property development and construction group Oreana’s managing director, Tony Sass, said that Farm Gate Local would deliver important amenities and improve convenience for the up to 3000 locals living in neighbouring Riverfield and Evergreen estates.
“We believe in the importance of local retail in new communities (and) these centres provide opportunity for community connection, as well as economic growth and jobs for locals,” he said.
“Farm Gate will make life easier by giving locals easy access to the essential shops they need, taking the pressure off more established centres.”
The centre will be anchored by Grace Oz Grocery, Plus Fitness, and Aspire Early Learning, with specialty retailers secured to date including Domino’s Pizza, Barbers Kingdom, bottlemart liquor, and Eco Laundry Room.
The current closest shopping precincts for the residents in the outer rims of Clyde, especially those bordering Ballarto Road, and within the boundaries of Tuckers Road and Pattersons Road, are Shopping on Clyde, Selandra Rise Shopping Centre, and St Germain Shopping Centre.
“Farm Gate Local is well under construction, and we’re excited to welcome residents when it opens in the second half of this year,” Sass said.
