LOVE MY LOCAL

Meet the local retailers at Eastlands

Our local businesses are the heart and soul of our centre. They’re the people behind your delicious daily coffee, fresh cuts of premium meat, immaculately steamed work shirts, and carefully curated looks. We’re here to share the stories behind some of the hard-working retailers at Eastlands.

Get to know our local retailers as they share their stories so that next time you drop in to support their business, they’ll know you’re here for them too.
