Harbour Town
Harbour Town is a shopping centre concept that incorporates multiple factory outlets in one centre. The centres are especially popular with locals and tourists. As of March 2015, there were two locations owned and operated as Harbour Towns: Biggera Waters, on Queensland's Gold Coast, and at Adelaide Airport, in South Australia. A centre in Docklands, Victoria was sold in March 2014.[1]
The Perth, Western Australia outlet centre now known as Watertown Brand Outlet Centre was initially called Harbour Town from its opening in 2003 until its sale in October 2013.[2] The Perth shopping property is now owned by Far East Organization of Singapore.[3]
