Save your myki – you won’t need it for this bus!

Much needed food is rolling into local communities on our supersized purple Mobile Supermarket Buses with more than 9,000 families hopping on over the last 12 months to fill their empty bags with beautiful, wholesome food.

With entry at the back and exit at the front, the 18-metre ‘bendy’ buses offer a miniature supermarket experience complete with shelving and refrigeration stocked with a range of fresh veg, fruit, staple pantry items and in-demand chilled foods like yogurt and milk. Each bus delivers 2,000 kg of fresh, healthy food – that’s 3,363 meals for every bus trip.

These buses allow us to reach vulnerable people living in the heart of our suburbs who don’t have the capacity to travel or aren’t able to access food relief centres. It’s a way we can provide a truly respectful service offering food that suits our culturally and linguistically diverse communities.

Over the year, these mighty machines have made 71 trips and distributed more than 245,000 meals across metropolitan Melbourne – that’s despite all the roadworks😊

We couldn’t have done this without our incredible partners, the team at Kinetic and DECJUBA Foundation and we’re so thankful on behalf of those 9,000 families to have their continuing support to keep our bountiful buses on the road.

We like to think of them as wheels with feels.
