    Explore locations

Explore Australia, one location at a time.

Start with a state or territory, then narrow the view by postcode. Find the business records associated with the location you are researching.

The name you know. The entity on record.

A brand, a business name and a registered entity are not always interchangeable.

Where a connection is established, GridAU links the public record to a business profile on The Grid. Explore what the business does and how it fits into the wider organisation — including connections beyond Australia.

Public sources. Clear context.

GridAU brings together information from Australian government datasets. Source links, dates and coverage notes help you understand what each record represents.

We distinguish registration facts from connected public records and from business context added by The Grid.

Before you rely on a record.

Is every ABN a company?

No. ABNs are used by different types of entities and business structures. Check the entity type rather than treating every record as a company.

Does an active ABN mean a business is safe to trade with?

No. ABN status is a registration fact, not a credit assessment, financial-health check or endorsement.

Is GridAU a government website?

No. GridAU is an independent service from The Grid. For an official or current confirmation, consult the relevant government register.
