New state Small Business Minister Phil Dalidarkis has joined Sunbury MP Josh Bull on a tour of the town’s CBD, including Evans and O’Shanassy streets.

Mr Dalidarkis and Mr Bull talked with shoppers and business owners as part of last Thursday’s meet and greet, discussing the role of small business in the local community.

‘‘With growth comes more opportunities for small business to grow and develop,’’ Mr Bull said.

‘‘It was fantastic to meet with local business owners who care so much about Sunbury and want to contribute to our community’s success.’’
