Retailers of all types and sizes will face decisions over the next few months as they prepare for the Victorian bag ban.

If your organisation has contact with local retail businesses, including food outlets and markets, you can help ensure businesses have the right information and advice they need.

Retailers can also help by ensuring businesses around you know about the ban and how to access help and advice.

The NRA are visiting thousands of retailers in over 100 retail precincts and shopping centres from March to August 2019. Please promote our itinerary to ensure business in your area or satellite towns can meet with us if they have concerns or questions.
