This multi-faceted store, situated in a huge converted old warehouse, has made a feature of the old building with great decor that adds to the ambience and experience of shopping.
The recent opening has created a huge buzz in the Newcastle and Hunter region with word of mouth creating a momentum of people travelling from wide to experience this delightful market. Harris Farm Markets thoughtfully responded to the huge demands on 
their car park with shuttle bus services from surrounding suburbs.
Harris Farm Market's new flagship market is probably their largest and showcases a wide range of local produce, from the greater Newcastle and Hunter regions, including Pep Tea Kombucha, Bush Cookies, and The Lolly Shop, a snack foods & confectionery brand. Other local producers include: Rosto Grove, Bacco’s Bakeries, Pukara Estate, Kerr’s Kitchen and Adina Vineyard.
The Harris Farm Markets family business has a strong history of supporting local NSW producers.
A brief tour of the store shows their interesting onsite mezzanine bakery with the Uprising Bakery elevators. These elevators lower the freshly baked bread from the mezzanine level bakery down an impressive five-metre journey where you can grab a fresh loaf below.
The in-store Milk Bar has an interesting concept where farmers milk is stored in vats and customers can pour themselves a bottle of fresh milk to take home. This Milk Bar features rotating single herd milk on tap. The great part is that each Aussie dairy farm featured on tap receives a huge 30% higher return per litre above regular milk farmgate prices. That is more fantastic support for local NSW producers and suppliers.
The instore butchery is a welcome site with great meat products and prices that are highly competitive, together with a display of fresh meat that will rival any supermarket or butchery. Their 
refurbishment includes a new 90 sqm cool room.
So it is a serious butchery, with adjacent delicatessen that is home to a premium and extensive meat selection, and a cut-to-order Harris Farm Meats butchery and dry-aged fridges. Customers will discover many of Australia’s best producers including Joe Papandrea snags, Northern Rivers craft Salumi, Hazeldene’s Farm chooks, Cape Grim meats, Valenca pork, and a lot more.
