About Us

Welcome to Wattle Bee Next, your physical and online store located in the historic gold mining town of Mount Morgan in the Rockhampton Hinterland.

Family owned and operated for 20 years, with long ties to the community, our passion is our town and celebrating the unique spirit of our area. Our team is made up of friendly locals who are more than just staff – we’re your neighbours. When you shop with us, you’re not just buying a product: you’re investing in the people and the heart of this town. We’re built on one simple idea: 

 The best retail experience is deeply rooted in the community it serves.

Starting as a simple newsagency, Wattle Bee Next has transformed into the diverse retail and coffee experience it is today

Our stock is carefully sourced to serve the needs of our community at our bricks and mortar store, and now to our online friends and customers also. We strive to be more than just a place to shop. We’re a gathering place where people can discover hidden local gems, learn the stories behind the products and feel connected to the vibrant energy of our area.
