Yarrawonga has been identified as a future key regional centre for the wider area of Northern Victoria due to its relatively high growth rate and developing role as a regional centre for homes, jobs, and services. As a result, population is expected to increase and in turn, many local businesses in the area stand to benefit.

This is a great opportunity to obtain a well-established business with very strong revenue and profit growth in an excellent location. There is potential for further upside, with the addition of a website and further marketing activity. The business would be well suited to a couple or family with an interest in hospitality.
