Nextrend

We're at the Hospitality Real Estate Summit.

The conversation in the room is exactly the one we have with operators every week: how do you get more out of the venue you already own?

Our answer comes in three parts — furniture that works as hard as the room does, venue refreshes that reposition without a full rebuild, and competitive socialising through SHUFL and FLYBY that turns quiet floor space into a destination.

One partner, one point of accountability, start to finish.

Trish, James & Rossie are here all day. Say hello over coffee, or grab us before the cocktail reception.

Still on site at Yamba Golf & Country Club and we're getting excited. 🙌

Everything's starting to come together, and it's been awesome watching this space transform over the past few weeks. We're in the home stretch now, so stay tuned for the full reveal.

What's the revenue per square metre of your quietest corner?

Most venues have one. The dead zone past the bistro. The function room that only earns its keep on Saturdays. The old TAB nook nobody's touched since 2019.

Competitive socialising is how a growing number of Australian operators are turning that space into a reason to visit — and a reason to stay longer.

Nextrend is the exclusive Australian distributor for The Social Gaming Group's FLYBY interactive darts and SHUFL shuffleboard. Both are built for commercial venues: durable, unattended-play capable, and designed to lift dwell time and spend across the bar rather than compete with it.

We're bringing FLYBY to the Hospitality Real Estate Summit on 9 September at Sofitel Melbourne on Collins — where "asset repositioning" and "utilisation" are on the agenda all day.

Come and throw a few. See how quickly a corner becomes a crowd.

The transformation is well underway, and it's been awesome seeing each stage come together on site.

Big things coming — keep watching. 👀

Furniture isn't decoration. It's asset performance.

Seat count. Covers per session. Turn time. How a space feels at 11am versus 9pm. Every one of those numbers is shaped by what you put on the floor — and by how long you wait to get it.

Thirty-plus years supplying Australia's pubs, clubs, RSLs and golf clubs has taught us the two things operators actually need: a genuinely stocked range for fast supply when a refresh can't wait, and custom capability when the space demands something built for it.

The Hospitality Real Estate Summit on 9 September brings together the owners, operators and investors reshaping what these assets are worth. FF&E decisions sit right at the centre of that conversation.

We'll be there. If you're planning a refurbishment, an acquisition, or a full reposition, let's talk before the specification is locked in.

💡 Did you know competitive socialising is one of Australia's fastest-growing venue categories?

And the venues leading the way all have one thing in common: they've investing in experiences that people can't get at home.

Whether it's interactive darts, shuffleboard, or live-action gaming, these aren't just novelty attractions but reasons to stay longer and come back (with friends) more often. They're the core experiences that are driving revenue.📈

If you're thinking of introducing a new entertainment offering or refreshing an existing gaming area, we can help you bring it all together with fit-outs designed for maximum success.
