~ A way to label all of the great neighbourhoods already interconnecting and encourage fun and business for all beyond council borders.

~ A big area of the Hurstbridge Region is inside of the Western Yarra Valley and has a whole feel of its own!

~ Within 15-20 minutes there are highly populated areas where businesses and customers can benefit from interacting in both directions.

Hurstbridge Region is an area that is connected via location and not different council borders🤗 We're promoting a region that we all already know exists.

HBR Business Group is what founder Suzy was looking for and what many other business owners crave.

~ A guiding hand, connections, business exposure.

~ Offerings to help the entire region as a whole and individual interested businesses.

~ Suzy is a resident and has worked with Hurstbridge Village traders and this space is for ALL interested and motivated business owners to benefit by being together, learning from and sharing and promoting each other.

~ The name is known across Melbourne - there is a trainline named 'Hurstbridge'.

~ It's a pin in the map for surrounding areas that are connected.

~ It will be familiar even if you're not in the region. We want visitors from wider Melbourne to be our customers, too.
