Support Local Townsville

Townsville City Council is encouraging all residents to continue doing their part in supporting local businesses wherever possible.

This support can range from buying gift vouchers to be used at a later date if you need to cancel appointments, buying food from businesses that are now offering takeaway options and supporting your local corner stores and/or independent/locally owned produce suppliers.

If your business has adapted its service offering over the past few months, let us help the community know you’re open for business by completing this online form.

Council will market this campaign, Support Local Townsville in the local community to let residents know you are open for business.

Register here!

Businesses will be added to a database and listed below as they begin to be registered.

This campaign is open to any local business in Townsville, regardless of the industry.

Please note it may take up-to 24-48 hours for your business to be added to the database due to the number of registrations we are receiving.
