Iconic RAAF Base Darwin Supermarket and Wholesale Hub Listed for Sale After 30 Years

Darwin, NT - A landmark supermarket, liquor, and wholesale distribution business located at the gates of RAAF Base Darwin has been listed for sale, marking the end of an era for its current owners who have held the asset since 1996.

This rare offering presents a strategic opportunity for Australian and international buyers to acquire a substantial, profitable operation in Northern Australia with a 30-year track record of success.

Positioned in Winnellie along the Stuart Highway and directly adjacent to one of Darwin's most strategic defence and industrial hubs, the business benefits from constant daily traffic generated by defence personnel, contractors, logistics operators, and the surrounding commercial precinct. Its prime location has underpinned consistent trade and long-term demand for three decades.

The business operates as a fully integrated supermarket with liquor licensing, supported by a well-established wholesale distribution arm servicing more than 100 business clients across the Northern Territory and beyond.

Wayne Morris, the representative managing the sale, noted that the longevity of the current ownership speaks to the business's strength.

"It is incredibly rare to see a high-turnover business of this scale come to market after being held by the same family since 1996," said Mr. Morris. "With established turnover, multiple income streams, and a strategic location servicing defence, logistics, and the wider community, this asset offers the kind of stability and potential that attracts serious owner-operators and investors."

Key Investment Features:

  • Stable Ownership: Held and successfully operated by the current owners since 1996.

  • Strategic Location: Prime positioning at the gates of RAAF Base Darwin.

  • Diversified Revenue: Fully operational supermarket with liquor licence and a wholesale network servicing over 100 regional clients.

  • Growth Ready: Expansion potential across wholesale, e-commerce, and private-label products.

  • Infrastructure: Energy-efficient facilities including a substantial solar power system.

In addition to domestic interest, the business is expected to attract attention from overseas investors. Northern Territory enterprises of this scale are often viewed favourably under Australia’s business and investment migration frameworks, as they demonstrate genuine commercial activity, local employment, and economic contribution.

Prospective international buyers are encouraged to seek independent migration advice regarding eligibility under relevant Australian visa pathways.

About the Business

Serving the Winnellie and defence community since 1996, the business has become a cornerstone of the local supply network. Through its supermarket, liquor, and wholesale operations, it provides essential goods and specialty products across Northern Australia.
