Yarrabah Retail Hub to Boost Economy, Serve Locals

Dept of Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development and Communications

The Albanese Government is supporting the delivery of Yarrabah's first retail and commercial precinct, providing $10 million funding from the latest round of the $400 million regional Precincts and Partnerships Program (rPPP).

The precinct will house a new supermarket and a social services and employment agency, bringing together essential employment, social and retail services in one location.

Yarrabah is one of the only places in Australia without a dedicated retail and commercial precinct and the new infrastructure will deliver this for the community.

The precinct will facilitate local business growth, entrepreneurship, and training opportunities, while creating a place for people to gather.

The Albanese Government is supporting eight projects across regional, rural and remote Australia with $45 million in funding through the latest round of the regional Precincts and Partnerships Program.

This includes $20 million across two Queensland projects.
