About

The Purpose Precinct is a marketplace at Queen Victoria Market in the heart of Melbourne that brings Victorian social enterprises together under the one roof - a collection of products that do good for people and the planet.

It is also a place that provides training and employment pathways for people experiencing barriers to employment, in an inclusive and supportive environment.

And a place where unsellable market produce is rescued and made into delicious products.

And a place that supports the development of new social enterprises and products made from repurposed materials.

It’s an Australian first. And it’s a pretty special place.

It is also a place for innovation, creation, activation. Join one of these workshops or classes to learn something new, and be inspired by our experts in circular living.
