Our Story

Welcome to Local-Businesses-Frankston-Vic, an online haven for all things local in Frankston, Victoria. We were born out of a passion to highlight and support the vibrant business community that makes this city so unique. In 2020, we set out on a mission to bridge the gap between residents, visitors, and the incredible local businesses that line our streets.
