Labor is creating skilled jobs and strengthening the state's reputation as a global business hub.
Minister Pearson today announced Vorwerk is relocating its Australasian HQ from Perth to Melbourne.
Vowerk's decision to relocate to Victoria is a strong vote of confidence in our state as a global business hub.
The new HQ will support 55 jobs.
Vorwerk is a global home technology company known for manufacturing innovative products.
This move brings the company closer to its largest customer base and harnesses Victoria's strong supply chain and world-class logistics infrastructure.
With established logistics and distribution operations in Moorabbin, Vorwerk chose Melbourne - the nation's foodie capital - as the natural location for its Australasian HQ.
The Allan Labor Government works closely with global industry leaders like Vorwerk to support their expansion in our state.
This reinforces Victoria's reputation as the destination of choice for international business.
International investment plays a vital role in Victoria's economy.
It drives innovation, boosts productivity, and creates high-quality jobs for Victorians.
Labor has secured international and domestic investment in over 1,200 projects.
The projects have created over 55,000 jobs and generated over $25 billion capital expenditure for the state.
