Struggling to put food in your cupboard? Check out The Store on Luxford Rd Emerton

For those of you living in Western Sydney or wiling to travel there could be a more affordable alternative to going to the Supermarket for kitchen staples. 

The Store consists of a Food Store, a Café and a Clothing Store.  While anyone can shop at the Café and Clothing Store, the Food Store functions as a cooperative and is only available to members. To qualify for membership you simply need to be a client, a participant in one of our programs or parishioners of the Holy Family Parish, Mount Druitt.

Members can go and fill their cupboards for about half the price that they’d pay elsewhere.

The Store also serves as a Retail Training Centre – a living classroom – providing retail students and volunteers with hands-on experience in retail, and is developing links with local Job Service agencies to help people to enter or to return to the work force.

The Store is also about creating direct employment for local people and developing a Store where the person who serves you, understands you because they live in your neighbourhood.
