A new online business capability register will boost local opportunities for Goldfields-Esperance businesses by connecting them with the region’s mining companies and major suppliers.
WA Premier Mark McGowan announced the launch of the G.E (Goldfields-Esperance) Business Register at Diggers and Dealers in Kalgoorlie-Boulder.
The register, a joint initiative between the WA Government and local business and industry groups, will give mining companies, their major suppliers and State Government agencies more streamlined access to small to medium regional enterprises.
It will also showcase business capabilities and promote more business interaction and local procurement for products and services.
The register is a collaboration between Goldfields-Esperance mining companies, Chamber of Minerals and Energy of Western Australia, Goldfields-Esperance Development Commission, the WA Government’s Regional Local Content Initiative and Kalgoorlie-Boulder Chamber of Commerce and Industry.
The Goldfields-Esperance region supports more than 30,000 jobs and has an annual economic output in excess of $20 billion.
