City of Tea Tree Gully

Member Profile

The City's key industry sectors are retail, construction, light manufacturing, professional and commercial services, and health and community services. We also have a growing number of home-based, small and emerging businesses. The ageing population is likely to exacerbate ongoing skills shortages, as the baby boomer generation progressively retires from the workforce during the next 10 years. Our transport networks, population, workforce education and training, and infrastructure affect our economy and our ability to increase business opportunities. Council will focus on supporting existing businesses and business sectors, while encouraging and facilitating new opportunities, such as the high speed broadband project, to develop our local economy.
