About Us
"Markets at The Pier" are managed by Community Focussed Markets Fraser Coast Association Incorporated
A Not-for-Profit Organisation made up of collaborative, like minded community members.
The committee of CFMFC are all residents of the Fraser Coast region.
Our point of difference is the breadth, depth & wealth of experience represented within our organisation.
Our group of community minded people have come together because they have a passion for markets and how community markets contribute to the local area.
They enthusiastically volunteer their time to take part in the reactivation, revitalization & evolution of the
markets at "The Pier" and Urangan Pier precinct.
We are driven to ensure that the markets continue to demonstrate a community focus by donating money to support local charities, offer a varied range of products, services & host opportunities to nurture & incubate emerging innovation & talent.
