Sunbury Business Association

Directions Website

Sunbury Business Association Sunbury Business Association (SBA) aims to help promote local businesses and encourage people to shop in Sunbury. Check out details in the online event.

The Sunbury Chamber of Commerce was founded in the 1980s to provide Sunbury businesses with a strong advocacy presence, promoting local trade and investment, networking opportunities and the exchange of information. In November 2010 the Chamber was reconstituted as the Sunbury Business Association with a new executive team and general committee. Membership is open to all businesses in Sunbury including home-based businesses.

2022 promises to be an important year for the Association as businesses bounce back from pandemic. The Greater Western Water Business Expo is a great opportunity to meet a client face-to-face for the first time after months of phone calls and e-mail exchanges. Why not reconnect with previous business clients or make time for key customers? Maybe, itā€™s the right time to kick start your online marketing with workshops and engagement at the Expo. Visit our website to see the business professionals who volunteer their time and expertise to the Board:

šŸŒŸMEMBER MONDAY SPOTLIGHT šŸŒŸ

BLUEGUM ELECTRICAL SOLUTIONS
Not all electricians are created equal, and Bluegum Electrical Solutions is proof of that āš”
Meet Josh and Chantel Gilbert, the team behind Bluegum Electrical. More than just a local electrician, Bluegum focuses on a holistic approach to all-electric home solutions.
Bluegum is built on a simple but powerful belief:
Electrical work should be done with homeowners, not to them.
Frustrated by the ā€œone-size-fits-allā€ approach often seen in the industry, they set out to do things differently, leading with honest communication, practical advice and solutions that are tailored to each home and family.
Because no two households use energy the same way, the solution should never be one-size-fits-all.
Working with homeowners across Sunbury and the Macedon Ranges, Bluegum Electrical specialises in helping families make smarter, long-term decisions about their energy use.
From:
ā˜€ļø Solar and battery systems
šŸ”Œ EV charger installations
ā„ļø Air conditioning
šŸ”„ Heat pump hot water systems
āš” Full electrical upgrades
Their focus is simple, helping you reduce your energy bills, future-proof your home and move towards smarter all-electric living without sacrificing comfort or convenience.
What really sets them apart?
They donā€™t just install systems. They educate, guide and build solutions alongside their clients.
Every recommendation is based on what theyā€™d genuinely use in their own homes, because trust matters to them.
Friendly, approachable and deeply knowledgeable, Josh and Chantel have created a business that feels less like a service provider and more like a long-term partner in your home.
Weā€™re proud to have Bluegum Electrical Solutions as part of our Sunbury business community, supporting locals to make smarter, more sustainable choices every day.

šŸ§©MEET THE COMMITTEE šŸ§©

DARRYL VAN ROOY
Secretary | Sunbury Business Association

Darryl has lived in Sunbury for more than 30 years and reckons heā€™s now completed the required induction period to officially call himself a local.

As the owner of Clean Maintain Restore, he works with businesses and property owners to protect and maintain some of their most valuable assets.

Darryl first became involved with the SBA more than a decade ago after being dragged along to a meeting by local business identities Michael Barnard and Barry Huxley. He never really left.

As SBA Secretary, Darryl brings a practical, steady approach to governance and administration, helping keep the organisation running smoothly behind the scenes.

Community service has always been important to Darryl. He has volunteered with the CFA for 35 years, helping protect local communities during times of need and contributing countless hours of service along the way.

Darryl is also proud to work alongside his daughter Amy, who is often part of the Clean Maintain Restore team, making the business a true family affair

Darryl believes that local business owners are part of a unique community within Sunbury, and that strong connections between businesses help create a stronger town for everyone.

šŸ Fun fact: If heā€™s not working, thereā€™s a good chance youā€™ll find him trackside at a speedway somewhere as part of the pit crew for his nephewsā€™ and nieceā€™s Formula 500 speedway team.

SPECSAVERS SUNBURY
Some businesses you visit onceā€¦
Others become part of your life.
For many in Sunbury, Specsavers Sunbury is exactly that šŸ‘“
Since opening in 2008, this local practice has been quietly caring for the community, helping families see clearly, stay connected, and feel confident in their health.
What started with Optometrist Brendan Myers has grown into something much bigger than a store. Over the years, itā€™s become a place built on:
āœØ Familiar faces
āœØ Trusted relationships
āœØ And genuine care
In 2018, the addition of audiology services expanded that care even further supporting not just vision, but hearing too. With Audiology Partner Stacey Meaney as part of the business, Specsavers Sunbury has continued to offer locals professional, personalised hearing care alongside their trusted optometry services.
And in a full-circle moment, long-time team members Daisy Golden and Bronwyn Wade after 17 and 13 years with the business, have now stepped into partnership.
That kind of continuity says everything.
Because this isnā€™t just a workplace, itā€™s a team that has grown together alongside the community.
From a childā€™s first pair of glassesā€¦
To helping someone hear their grandchild clearlyā€¦
To guiding customers through important health decisionsā€¦
Specsavers Sunbury is there for lifeā€™s everyday moments and the big ones too.
What sets them apart is simple:
They take the time.
Time to explain.
Time to guide.
Time to make sure every customer feels comfortable, confident, and supported.
With comprehensive eye care, personalised eyewear solutions, and professional hearing services all under one roof theyā€™ve created a space where health meets community.

Weā€™re proud to have businesses like Specsavers Sunbury at the heart of our town caring for generations of locals, one conversation at a time.
