Harris Farm Markets Erina Fair
Harris Farm's Central Coast store, trading inside Erina Fair, the largest single-level shopping centre in the Southern Hemisphere.
About this market
Harris Farm Markets' Central Coast store trades inside Erina Fair, a shopping centre with a claim to fame of its own: since expansions in 1994, 2003 and 2009 added to its original 1987 footprint, Erina Fair has grown into the largest single-level shopping centre in the Southern Hemisphere. Harris Farm, the family grocery chain David and Cathy Harris founded in Villawood in 1971, is one of its anchor fresh food tenants.
Fresh produce inside the Central Coast's biggest centre
Where some Harris Farm stores stand alone as destination shops, the Erina Fair location is built into a much larger retail ecosystem, drawing shoppers already visiting the centre's more than 300 other stores rather than relying purely on its own trade. That scale means the Erina store benefits from consistent Central Coast foot traffic year-round, on top of the loyal local following most Harris Farm stores build through their fresh produce and grocery range.
Market at a glance
Three separate expansions since Erina Fair first opened its doors in 1987 have pushed the centre well past the scale of an ordinary regional shopping mall, and Harris Farm's presence inside it reflects how central fresh food retail has become to the centre's overall offer.
Erina Fair, the shopping centre Harris Farm Markets trades inside, is recognised as the largest single-level shopping centre anywhere in the Southern Hemisphere, a title built up over three separate expansions since it opened in 1987.
