Launched in 2001, Sydney Markets Limited’s Greengrocer of the Month/Year awards program is used to acknowledge, encourage and reward excellence in fresh produce retailing.

Independent greengrocers from NSW and ACT who purchase their produce from Sydney Markets are eligible to participate in this highly successful and resourceful program.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

Throughout the year participating greengrocers are visited regularly by professional anonymous shoppers who critique the each store from a customer’s perspective to judge.

• Produce range and quality
• Store cleanliness
• Customer service
• In store display
• Staff product knowledge
• Merchandising and brand skills

Information obtained by anonymous shoppers, together with additional industry criteria is used by Sydney Markets to determine the recipients of the Greengrocer of the Month awards, Distinction in Retailing awards and ultimately the Metropolitan and Regional Greengrocer of the Year award.
