We invite applications for a community market operator in Taylor Square north.
A market operator who can provide a curated offering with a point of difference in the City of Sydney’s area while complementing the area surrounding the plaza and existing businesses will be suitable. They should also demonstrate a clear commitment to our goals in Sustainable Sydney 2030–2050 Continuing the Vision.
The market operator must be able to run a weekly fresh produce and growers market on Saturday mornings. This market will be an interesting and vibrant destination selling quality goods and services which represents value for money.
The initial operation and management period would be for a one-year licence term with 2 options for 24-month periods (a maximum of 5 years total).
You must complete all parts of the request for proposal forms. We may reject any application missing information.
