Doing Business in Perth - Western Australia (2001)

Perth is perhaps the easiest of Australian cities in which to do business. The city is fairly compact and offers relatively trouble free access to the CBD and to the various commercial and industrial areas.

A small market, occupied by just 1.8 million residents, it's a state covering more than 2.5 million kilometres, with its primary economy is driven by energy, mining and farming producing a GDP of US$39.3 billion to roughly 10 per cent of Australia's total GDP.

Nowadays, Western Australia tends to look at the bigger picture of emerging markets in Asia and Perth is ideally positioned to access every significant market in Australia, Asia and the Indian Ocean rim countries.

Its close location to the power economies in Asia - sharing similar time zones with Singapore, Beijing, Seoul and Hong Kong - is one of the major reasons why the West Australian economy has been one of the fastest growing in Australia during the past 10 years.

Perth's thriving manufacturing sector contributes around 10 per cent of the State's exports. Key products include high speed ferries, chemicals, mining equipment, information and communication technology and processed foods and beverages.

 

Emerging industries include innovative advanced technologies and software development. The services sector, which accounts for about 70 per cent of economic activity, is also highly competitive.

Perth-based businesses are also active in health and education, building and construction, information and communications, tourism, business services and resources engineering.    This article continues here
