The Australian Retail Council (ARC) is a national industry body for retail in Australia, created through the merger of the National Retail Association and the Australian Retailers Association. It provides advocacy, industry insights, events, training, and member support to the broader retail community. Based in Spring Hill, Queensland, ARC operates with a small-to-medium team serving retailers nationwide, with information available at retail.org.au. The merger that formed ARC took effect on February 1, 2026. A recent development associated with ARC is the ARC Retail Awards 26 held in Melbourne, where an automotive parts retailer was recognized with an award presented by ARC.
