Geelong
Geelong is a thriving and bustling city, the second fastest growing in the whole of Australia. With a population of over 268,000 and counting, and home to 10,000 businesses Victoria’s second largest city is the perfect home for a Fresh hub.
The City of Greater Geelong covers a large geographic area, incorporating the plains of Lara, the hills of Waurn Ponds and the spectacular surf coastline of Torquay and Ocean Grove, as well as the port and urban development of Geelong city centre. Its businesses are just as widespread and diverse, from the largest employers to mid-sized enterprises and local entrepreneurs.
Geelong provides jobs for over 80,000 people, with the top three industries being manufacturing and processing, retail and healthcare and community services.

How does this online hub work?
When you join Fresh National Geelong, you’ll be the only member in your business category.
Geelong is an area hub, affiliated with the state hub for Victoria. If an area hub has fewer than 10 members, it will take part in a combined meeting with the state hub. You may find that in the state hub meeting, you’re not the only bookkeeper/graphic designer/mortgage broker in the room.
The faster the Geelong area hub grows, the faster you reach independent meetings and exclusive claim to your category.
Our Next Meeting
At every meeting, a member gives a presentation about their business, or a topic on which they are an expert.
This helps us to build the ‘know, like and trust’ that is at the heart of Fresh. By getting to know a member that bit better, we get closer to understanding their ideal referral and whether we can introduce them to any of our contacts.
