Essendon is a well-established suburb in Melbourne’s inner northwest, known for its leafy streets, heritage charm, and strong community spirit. Nestled within the City of Moonee Valley, it offers a unique blend of old-school character and modern convenience – just 9km from the CBD with easy access via CityLink, trams, trains, and major arterial roads.
With a rich history, vibrant café culture, and growing number of independent businesses, Essendon has long been a favourite for professionals and entrepreneurs who want city access without the city chaos. From family-run stores and creative agencies to legal, health, and financial services, the business community here is as diverse as it is dynamic – making it the perfect home for a Fresh Networking hub.
Fresh Networking is where driven businesspeople come to connect, grow, and support one another in a relaxed (but results-driven) environment.
The Essendon hub meets fortnightly at a local venue to spark real conversations, build genuine relationships, and help each other succeed. It’s not about rigid referral quotas – it’s about building trust, sharing opportunities, and having a laugh along the way.
As an Essendon member, you’ll also get access to Fresh’s wider community of 330+ members and 11,000+ annual event attendees across Melbourne. More Connections, Less Blah.
If you’re ready to grow your business in a fun, fresh way – come join us in Essendon. We’d love to meet you.
