Trades & Industry Membership

The Avalon Palm Beach peninsula includes talented trades and small industry contributors providing vital services to our residents and fellow business members, or creating new businesses and products synonymous with the Northern Beaches and our area.

Local Trades & Industry are encouraged to be part of our business community even if their jobs and clients take them far and wide. You can opt for a Trades & Industry Membership at a nominal annual fee.

You are eligible for Trades & Industry Membership if you are:

• A licensed Tradesperson
• Owner of a trades-based business 
  
• A producer, grower or manufacturer

Examples of trades include: licensed carpenters, builders, plumbers, electricians and related construction trades; licensed arborists, tree doctors and qualified horticulturalists and other licensed trades as defined by the NSW government. Industry examples relevant to our area include brewery owners, small producing farms and producers, wine makers and distributors operating in the area (even if properties are located regionally).

Qualified chefs, hairdressers, beauticians may join this tier or may opt for the Retail & Services membership if more suitable.
