Shopping in and Around Officer: Centres, Gifts, Organics

Correction (3 October 2026): an earlier version of this page listed places and details we could not stand behind. It has been rewritten from scratch: every place below was confirmed at two independent sources on 2 October 2026, and every price was copied from the page it was published on.

Five places made this guide, and they are best read as three kinds of shopping: the two shopping centres in Officer itself, a third centre in Pakenham, and two independent shops in Beaconsfield. That makes it shopping in and around Officer, with each heading carrying the venue’s own suburb.

Each place is described by what its own site says and when it says it trades. Prices are rare: only the Beaconsfield butcher publishes any we could read, so the other four show no dollar figures. We have kept the stores named inside the two Officer centres to what their own pages list, without checking each one separately.

Arena Shopping Centre — 4 Cardinia Road, Officer VIC 3809

The centre’s own site describes itself as “Your local destination for shopping, dining, and everyday convenience.” Its trading hours page lists Monday and Tuesday as 7:00am to 10:00pm, the latest closing time among the hours we could read on this page. The street number comes from OpenStreetMap, as the site gives only Princes Highway and Cardinia Road. Its stores list names Woolworths, The Reject Shop, Australia Post and BWS among others; we read the names and did not check each store separately.

The strip: Princes Highway and Cardinia Road, Officer, per the centre’s own address line.

One Centre Square — 43-45 Siding Avenue, Officer VIC 3809

The site calls One Centre Square “your local neighbourhood lifestyle retail destination located in the town centre of Officer”, and its address line reads 43-45 Siding Ave, Officer, VIC 3809 with the words “Monday to Sunday”. We read no opening times on that page, only the days. Its shops page lists names including Bottle-O, Vogue Station, Anytime Fitness and a Medical Hub, which we did not check one by one. The site describes the Anytime Fitness branch as “Officer’s first 24/7 Super Club”.

Known for: a neighbourhood retail and services mix in the town centre, in the site’s own description.

The Heritage Shopping Centre — 1 Livingstone Boulevard, Pakenham VIC 3810

Pakenham is outside Officer. The centre’s own site says “7 days a week shopping” and lists Monday and Tuesday as 9.00am to 6.00pm. We found the address on its own site and the shopping-centre tag on OpenStreetMap, which carries no address of its own for it.

Known for: a seven-day shopping centre, in the words of its own site.

Daisy Blossom Gifts & Homewares — Shop 11, 55 Old Princes Highway, Beaconsfield VIC 3807

Beaconsfield, not Officer. The shop’s site says it is “a family-owned & run business based in the Beaconsfield Plaza Shopping Complex in VIC” and offers “complimentary Gift-Wrapping on all purchases”. Its trading hours read Monday 10:00am to 4:00pm, Tuesday to Friday 9:30am to 5:00pm and Saturday 9:30am to 2:00pm, closed Sunday and public holidays. OpenStreetMap lists the same hours. It also runs an online store, per its site.

Go for: a gift with the wrapping included, by the shop’s own offer.

Cherry Tree Organics Butcher Shop — Shop 1, 22-24 Old Princes Highway, Beaconsfield VIC 3807

This is the only place on the page with prices we could read. Its site headline reads “Certified Organic Meat Direct From The Farmer”, and its online store lists certified organic soup bones (beef bones) at $19, a marrow bone at $14.46, lamb bones at $11.66 and beef cheeks at $22.06. The page prints no unit beside the prices, so we cannot tell you whether they are per kilo or per pack. Beef cheeks are a slow-cooking cut, and bones like these are what stock is built from. The shop’s site lists Monday to Friday 8am to 5pm and Saturday 9am to 1pm.

Listed prices (copied from cherrytreeorganics.com.au on 2 October 2026):

  • Certified organic soup bones (beef bones): $19
  • Certified organic marrow bone: $14.46
  • Certified organic lamb bones: $11.66
  • Certified organic beef cheeks: $22.06

Price point: the four prices above, with no unit stated on the page.
