The City of Fremantle unveiled its new investment attraction website, City Plan, and Economic Development Strategy at a business and industry community briefing last Friday.
The new Invest Fremantle website - www.investfremantle.com.au - has been designed to provide investors, entrepreneurs, property developers, and local businesses with a clear and accessible resource that highlights the city's emerging opportunities, key investment precincts and major projects pipeline as Fremantle goes through its biggest revitalisation in 40 years.
With a wave of mixed-use developments, new hotels, major residential, heritage restorations and cultural infrastructure projects transforming key precincts across the city centre and surrounding neighbourhoods, the City's current development pipeline stands at $1.8 billion.
City of Fremantle Director of City Business Matthew Hammond said Fremantle's economic momentum is building.
"Fremantle is in a period of renewed business confidence, with investors, developers and local operators recognising the city's unique strengths and long-term potential.
"The launch of Invest Fremantle unites the strategic vision of our City Plan with the Economic Development Strategy 2030 and leverages the existing THIS IS FREMANTLE brand by broadening the scope of existing destination marketing activities to include investment attraction and marketing initiatives," Mr Hammond said.
The launch follows the City's recent adoption of its Economic Development Strategy 2030 and new City Plan, which together set a strong direction for Fremantle's economic future supporting a growing population, diversifying local industry, and fostering a resilient and innovative business environment.
The website will also include a directory for professional service businesses to list their details, making it easier for potential clients and partners to connect with them.
Businesses can get involved by sharing their success stories, join investor campaigns, be featured in case studies and the quarterly newsletter, and subscribe to stay up to date on the latest insights, opportunities, and events.
