Peters Fish Market Redevelopment

Peter’s Fish Market has operated on The Spit for over 30 years. Following assessment of a detailed redevelopment proposal, approval was granted for a new two-storey facility that will enhance the visitor experience and improve public access to the Broadwater.

The redevelopment of Peter’s Fish Market did not proceed through an open market Expression of Interest process. Instead, consistent with the Queensland Government Land Transaction Policy, following requests from the long term occupant, Queensland Fish Industries Pty Ltd, the State invited the occupant to submit an in priority proposal to redevelop the site and continue operating from it.

This approach recognises the business’s longstanding operations on The Spit and its significant interest in the site, enabling a streamlined process aligned with the outcomes of The Spit Master Plan.
