The City of Stonnington is home to some of Melbourne's most recognisable and visited retail, lifestyle, and business precincts, each with its own distinctive character. Stonnington's shopping precincts actively market and promote our city as a vibrant place to be and invest.
Local business and the community are important to us as well as creating a vibrant city we can all love. That's why we've created the Place-Led Economic Development Strategy (PLED) to support and grow business in Stonnington. The strategy reflects months of conversations with our community, including residents, businesses, visitors, and industry representatives, and puts our renowned activity centres - their unique places, distinct characters, and experiences at the forefront of economic development.
Night-time economy data
As part of the PLED Strategy, Council has been exploring how to best support and grow our night-time economy across our key precincts. Ingenium Research Pty Ltd was engaged to deliver a report uncovering what drives Stonnington’s night-time vibrancy - from performance and employment, to strengths, challenges, and future opportunities.
