The City of Melbourne has announced that retailers in two city
blocks between Bourke St Mall and Latrobe St will be open till 7:00pm each
night and 9:00 pm on Thursday and Friday.
This is part of a move to make retailers more accessible to city
shoppers, including thousands of city workers, and the growing population of
city dwellers. The new hours have been introduced to coincide with the launch
of the 225 store Emporium Shopping Centre which will form part of an internal
North/South mall from Myer and David Jones in Bourke St to Melbourne Central on
Latrobe St.
Melbourne city retail hours will likely become 10:00am till
7:00pm. More food for thought for QVM Traders as we consider how we can best
meet the needs of our customers.
