Visiting Tamworth

Retail & Shopping

If you thought the big shopping experience was limited to capital cities, then think again!

Tamworth is the "capital city" for the New England North West, serving around 178,000 residents.  The retail industry is one of our larger employers, and the range of products and services available compares more than favourably with bigger cities.You can choose from a classic tree-lined bourse in the Central Business District where major national chains and franchises stand side by side with smaller retailers and alfresco restaurants and cafes. Or you can shop 'til you drop at one of the Three shopping centers, one of the largest, modern shopping centres in regional New South Wales.

You will find the latest fashion from around the world or manufactured and marketed locally, as well as those classically-country products which reflect a rural lifestyle.  You can even buy goods direct from local factories!

And food!  There is so much fresh produce supplied by local growers  from market gardeners and hydroponic farms to specialty foods based on fish, berries, wine, olives - you name it - we grow it!

But don't think our shopping is limited to food and clothing.

Tamworth is a major provider of a wide range of products and services.The City is a major supplier of passenger and commercial vehicles for the region - and they are competitive with big city prices.  We actually build special vehicles for use in industrial, commercial and personal  applications in Tamworth.

Just take a look at Tamworth's public and private parks and gardens, and you will realise that the plant nursery industry, both wholesale and retail, ranks with the best in the nation.

Tamworth is famous for her international-standard artists - oil and water painting, ceramics, sculpture - just drop in to our many public and commercial art galleries across the City to see what we have to offer.The BIG difference in shopping in Tamworth.

is that is a relaxing experience.  There is no car park rage here and there is a sense of space and friendliness that you won't find in a major metropolitan city.  Our sidewalks can be packed with people (especially in January!!), yet you will not feel intimidated by the crowd. 

Why is this?

Because you are City living, Tamworth style!
