So, it was only fitting that the team from Browse won the award for Outstanding Event Service at the Central Cost Business Awards.
Browse Events currently owns and operates the very popular Terrigal Beach Markets, Long Jetty Markets, Wyee Markets, East Gosford Markets and the Valley to Coast Food & Wine Festival.
They also manage a number of large Shopping Centre Mini Pop Up Markets, including Markets at the Fair Erina and Collective Space Perth. Browse Events also own and operate Coasties Entertainment, promoting local Central Coast Musicians.
Browse Events works with Central Coast Council and Lake Macquarie Council, land owners, Government departments and Asset management companies such as Vicinity Group, Lend Lease, AMP Capital, Gibbons Group and Crowne Plaza.
It demonstrates that the team at Browse Events understand how to operate successful markets and events.
Owner of Browse Events Joanne Giles created the first Terrigal Beach Markets in 2015, working closely with the City of Gosford Council and all other stakeholders along with local shopfront businesses to create a very successful market on the Terrigal Esplanade.
Due to a large oversupply of market stall holders this led to the creation of new markets - Markets at The Fair, Riverside Park Markets and Shopping Centre Pop Up Activations.
In December 2018 Browse Events secured the ownership of the Shelly Beach Markets, in which Joanne relocated to the Long Jetty Foreshore and renamed it Long Jetty Markets.
Most recent addition to Browse Events’ outdoor market portfolio is securing the ownership of the Wyee Markets and the East Gosford Markets.
During the tough Covid-19 restrictions in 2020 Browse Events launched an online version of the markets, giving local Central Coast businesses the opportunity to still sell their local produce and goods via a safe online portal during the lockdown months.
This was very well received by local and interstate shoppers, who preferred to support local Australian businesses. This service continued in2021.
Browse Events has been nominated for several Business awards and owner Joanne was a Finalist in the 2018 and 2019 Australian Young Entrepreneur Business Awards.
