Retail Presence

Test, sell, activate — without a retail lease

Two Melbourne retail locations for Hexa Hub members — CBD and Box Hill. Use them for pop-ups, product launches, wholesale showcases, or rolling brand presence without the commitment of a long-term retail lease.

Two locations

CBD foot traffic. Suburban anchor.

Two distinct retail environments — each giving your brand a different slice of the Melbourne market.

Why it matters

Physical retail, without the commitment

Test before you lease

Validate whether a product or category has legs in a physical environment before committing to a permanent retail footprint.

Build brand presence

Give customers, press, wholesale buyers, and investors somewhere to physically experience your brand — not just a warehouse tour.

Cross-border launch

For overseas brands landing in Australia, physical retail presence builds trust with local consumers and wholesale partners who want to see the product before they commit.

Getting started

How it works

Step 1

1

Tell us your goal

Pop-up, product launch, wholesale showcase, or rolling brand presence — tell us what you're trying to achieve and which location fits.

Step 2

2

Pick your window

Short-term bookings from one week up to multi-month activations. We'll confirm availability at your chosen location.

Step 3

3

Move in and launch

We'll help with setup logistics, signage, and connecting back to your Hexa Hub Huntingdale operations for restock and inventory.

Good fit

Who retail presence is built for

Cross-border e-commerce brands

Overseas brands landing in Australia who need physical presence to build trust and close wholesale deals — without signing a 5-year retail lease sight-unseen.

Product launches & pop-ups

Brands launching a new product, collection, or category that benefits from a physical activation event — press, influencers, and early customers all welcome.

Wholesale & trade showcase

Brands showing to retail buyers, distributors, or trade partners who want to experience the product in a real retail environment rather than a boardroom.
