Running a restaurant, café or catering business takes genuine commitment. R&CA exists to support that commitment with practical guidance, specialist advice, and meaningful representation at every level of government.
For over 100 years we have been the national voice for Australia's hospitality sector. Whether you are establishing a new venue or leading a mature operation, we are here to help you build a stronger, more professional business.
Access our in-house team for practical advice on pay rates, award interpretation, rostering, and HR matters. Whether it's a compliance question or a tricky staff situation, we're a phone call away.
We cut through the noise and keep you across what's actually changing: wage reviews, new legislation, grant opportunities, and industry shifts that affect your bottom line.
We represent hospitality operators at the federal, state, and local government levels. From IR reform to cost-of-doing-business issues, your challenges are on our agenda.
Members receive discounted access to nationally recognised training, including food safety, Gold Licence™, skills training, leadership, and more. Build your team's capability on your schedule.
Save on insurance, technology, energy, and more through our network of trusted industry partners. Benefits designed specifically for hospitality operators, not generic small business discounts.
Connect with fellow operators, share insights, and gain national recognition through the R&CA Hostplus Awards for Excellence, Australia's most prestigious hospitality awards program.
