The City of Mount Gambier hosted the South Australian Small Business Commissioner last week for an open and insightful conversation with local business operators.
The event brought together small business owners from across the region to connect directly with the Commissioner, exploring challenges and sharing experiences.
During the event, the Commissioner shared how his office supports businesses across the state, including guidance on resolving issues related to leases, contracts, equipment and cash flow, areas that can significantly affect day‑to‑day operations.
The Commissioner also spoke about his role as an independent voice for small business, operating separately from government departments, and how this enables his office to advocate effectively on behalf of operators. Insights from regional communities play an important role in shaping statewide advocacy efforts.
