Guyra Shire boasts a vibrant and energetic business community
"Fine Food … Fine Shopping … Fine Accommodation" is the catch-cry of the Guyra Tourism & Commerce Association, an organisation
of local business people actively working towards the continued growth
of Guyra while supporting local businesses and tourism facilities.
Local business
people are passionate about and fiercely loyal to their town, are prepared
to invest in what they believe in and are not ‘backward’ in
fighting for its independence.
In the last
few years several new purpose-built commercial buildings have been constructed
— a sure sign of a healthy local economy. Most major services are
available in Guyra too, a surprising fact perhaps but again pointing to
a dynamic and growing local economy.
Economic Development Opportunities in Guyra
Guyra has seen a resurgence of commercial, agricultural and retail interest in the past three years. The future of the region has never looked brighter.
As a member of the New England Strategic Alliance of Councils (NESAC), Guyra is working with neighbouring Councils to promote a regional approach to tourism and economic development.
Guyra Shire Council is looking to ratifying its Local Environmental Plan in the near future with opportunities for responsible and sustainable growth identified across the Shire.
Council's General Manager, David Cushway, encourages anyone considering investing in rural and regional areas to strongly consider the lifestyle, location and commercial advantages that Guyra has to offer.
David is more than happy to meet with prospective businesses and residents thinking of making the 'tree change' to Guyra.
We will be promoting Guyra across the region and look forward to representing our community in the reinvigorated Country and Regional Living Expo (formerly Country Week) in Sydney during August 2009.
Guyra is focussed on sustainability, not only in terms of its economic future, but also is committed to the environmental sustainability of the region.
Guyra has been blessed by abundant water and significant natural resources; all of which need to be managed effectively for the benefit of future generations.
Our proximity to the Coast and being located midway between Sydney and Brisbane on the New England Highway, makes Guyra a perfect location for national companies looking to relocate.
