Investment attraction

A key GSDC activity involves marketing the Great Southern to potential investors and to those seeking to relocate to the region. During 2008/09, the GSDC provided information to these client groups to help them make informed investment decisions. The information is often used by the companies concerned in scoping and feasibility studies and for developing other business planning tools.

The GSDC’s investment clients during the period included proponents in steel manufacturing, power generation, aquaculture and agricultural processing. The GSDC also liaised with Perth-based businesses from various industry sectors which were looking to expand operations to the Great Southern.
