Our vision for the future is to be Australia’s most respected service business through an unwavering commitment to our principles. We believe that earning the respect of our employees, our customers, our industry partners and our communities will ultimately ensure the long-term success of our company.

Celebrating 60 Years of Commitment to Tasmanians

It’s been 60 years since Federal Group first invested in Tasmania, purchasing the iconic Wrest Point Riviera Hotel.

We’re proud of the people who’ve helped over the years to make Federal Group Tasmania’s leading tourism, hospitality and entertainment provider.

Federal Group is committed to substantial investments in Tasmania including a major refurbishment of the Wrest Point tower, the opening of MACq 01 on Hobart’s waterfront, our new five-star sister property to Saffire at Port Arthur, as well as considerable investments at Country Club and in our hotels and bottle shops.
