The Bundaberg region is the hub of the agriculturally rich Burnett region and the southern gateway to the beautiful Great Barrier Reef. Just four hours north of Brisbane by road or rail, Bundaberg is an innovative and entrepreneurial community geared for a prosperous and sustainable future for companies like yours.

Bundaberg has one of the most equable sub-tropical climates in the world and rarely experiences frost. It has a 48-week growing period for its horticultural and agricultural industry, which contributes A$426 million to the region’s economy. The region spans an area of 26,159 square km (10,100 square miles), making it a larger landmass than Israel or Macedonia, as well as each of the American states of Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, and Rhode Island. So, there’s plenty of room for new businesses.

Bundaberg’s strengths include:

• its close proximity by road, rail and air to the capital city of Brisbane
• an established university campus offering a range of study specialties and career options
• high quality of life through an equable climate, affordable housing, low cost of living and sporting, cultural, leisure, arts and recreation facilities and opportunities
• proximity to the southernmost regions of the Great Barrier Reef
• port and marina facilities for large and small vessels
• tourism activities supported by high-quality accommodation.

Promoting its eastern perimeter as the “Coral Coast” – with sheltered beaches at Woodgate, Elliott Heads, Innes Park, Mon Repos, Bargara, Burnett Heads and Moore Park – the region also has eight national parks along its unspoiled coastline, all of which are popular with locals and tourists. There are 10 local government authorities working cooperatively to service this steadily growing population.
