Capricornia Businesses Urged To Apply For Exclusive National Showcase At The Parliament House

Capricornia’s small businesses have a golden opportunity to showcase their unique,
locally made products on one of the biggest stages in the country, the Australian
Parliament House Gift Shop.

Federal Member for Capricornia, Michelle Landry, is calling on local businesses to apply
for the Parliament Shop National Showcase, where Queensland will take centre stage
this April.

“This is an incredible chance for our small businesses to shine,” Ms Landry said.

“Queensland is home to some of the most talented artisans and producers, and this
showcase puts their products in front of thousands of visitors from across Australia and
the world.”

The Parliament Shop National Showcase has been a huge success, giving each state
and territory a chance to highlight their best local products. Now, it’s Queensland’s turn
to impress.

“This is more than just a sales opportunity, it’s about telling the story of our region, our
craftsmanship, and the passion behind every handmade, one-of-a-kind product,” Ms
Landry said.

“For businesses, it’s a once-in-a-lifetime chance to gain national exposure and reach a
brand-new audience.”

Local businesses keen to be part of this exclusive showcase can apply online at
Parliament Shop National Showcase.

Applications close Friday, 28 February 2025, at 5:00 pm AEDT.
