FAQs

Why and what is Click & Collect?

In the 2018 B.E.A.R. report, Sunbury retail business owners asked the following questions :

  • How could all Sunbury coffee producers work together towards getting a little bit of Sunbury in every cup of coffee enjoyed in the coffee capital of the world? Then... world domination?
  • In order to improve the shopping experience in Sunbury as a whole, what are some of the techniques a retail shop could use to improve their individual in-store experience and online presence?

The Click & Collect shopping site has been created for a better local shopping initiative that aims to provide a low cost marketplace to help local retailers to combat the likes of Amazon.

To encourage customers to #ShopSunbury #BuyLocal.


How will this help local retailers?

A savvy retail community can be empowered with education, have a focus on curation and greater focus on retail metrics and customisation. There is an opportunity to add more ‘play’ into their shop experiences.


Why should I use Click & Collect?

"Stats found 61 per cent of shoppers who bought items online and picked up in-store made an additional purchase."

Fulfilment is difficult in Australia due to its size and population. This is an advantage for small and local businesses to take advantage of.

More online channels means greater presence on the web in search engines such as Google and makes it easier to share via social media.
