AWESOME campaign
Social Enterprise
To provide the Central Coast with a form of
tourism that does not reduce the availability
of resources and does not inhibit future
travellers from enjoying the same
experience.
The Business Idea
• The business will sell gourmet exotic pizza using unique ingredients
from Australia and around the world
• The menu will mix Italian style with unique Australian ingredients
including native herbs, kangaroo, crocodile, emu, snake and other
ingredients that become available
• The business is based on successful models of indigenous restaurants
in Sydney and Cairns and the Freddos Pie shop on the North Coast
that has become a regional tourist attraction
• It is the only business of its type anywhere in Australia
• The business' is ideally located between Sydney and Newcastle, just
of the freeway and on the lake
• Shop will also sell Indigenous Art, souvenirs, native herbs, jams and
sauces
Social Outcomes
• Generates employments and provides skills and
career pathways to local youth
• Reinvigorates the area of denigrated shops by
attracting regional tourism
• Creates a family friendly environment at an
underutilised water front
• Promotes native and indigenous products and
traditional culture
