Buyer's Pass FAQ
Everything you need to know about accessing Sydney Markets as a wholesale buyer.
Become a Buyer
Are you a business owner who requires wholesale volumes of fresh flowers, fruits, and vegetables? Sydney Markets is the right place for you.
Greengrocers, providores, food manufacturers, restaurant and cafe owners, caterers, florists, and event managers with a valid ABN are all eligible to apply.
Before You Apply
Sydney Markets offers two types of access passes depending on which areas you need to trade in:
- General Trading Area (GTA) Buyer's Pass — access to Buildings A, B, C, D & E
- Flower Market Access Pass — access to Building F from 5am
- Combined Pass — access to both areas
If you are an employee of a wholesale agent looking for a GTA Access Pass, please visit Market Central, Building B.
You will be allowed entry to the Sydney Growers Market Building D, Sydney Produce Market Buildings A, B, and C, and the Banana Market Building E. These buildings are where wholesale fruit and vegetables are sold by wholesale agents and growers from 3.00am Monday and Friday, and from 4.00am Tuesday, Wednesday & Thursday.
You will be allowed early access from 5am Monday to Friday to the Sydney Flower Market Building F, and trade with the flower growers and wholesalers.
No. Each Buyer's Pass is valid only for the person to whom it is issued. You cannot share or transfer it to another person. You will be required to take a photograph when you collect your pass — it is a photo ID card showing your name and business name.
No. Access to Sydney Growers Market Building D, Sydney Produce Market Buildings A, B, and C, and the Banana Market Building E during restricted Monday to Friday trading hours is limited to those with a registered Buyer's Pass.
Members of the public are encouraged to shop at Paddy's Markets Flemington Building D every Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.
