Narrabri Shire is ready for Business. Historically famous in the agricultural sector, the Shire is looking to the future across a range of industries that will build on our strong economic foundation. Additional natural gas and coal mining projects are joining existing organisations, creating diverse employment and ancillary business opportunities.
Come and join a number of successful and diverse industries already existing in Narrabri Shire. There are a range of freehold and leasehold options available in the industrial and retail sectors. Existing and proposed commercial and industrial estates are strategically located allowing easy and close access to highways and railway spur lines. As well as finding the ideal commercial site for your business, your housing options are also varied from town living, new housing estates, rural and lifestyle blocks through to broad acre farms.
Moving your business to Narrabri Shire does not mean substandard communication networks. Established communications with broadband internet, extensive mobile phone coverage and technical support services are on par with city infrastructure. Narrabri Shire has secure water and electricity supplies. Eastern Star Gas, which produces the cleanest power supply commercially available, is currently a net exporter of gas from the Shire. As capacity increases this will have a direct positive impact on Narrabri Shire and enable the attraction of industries that utilise large amounts of gas, electricity and water.
Narrabri Shire is connected to the world through excellent freight services to major cities and ports by rail, road and air and is a transport hub positioned on the junction of the Newell and Kamilaroi Highways.
