LandCorp’s Pinjarra Industrial Estate is expected to become a sought after industrial address thanks to the recent opening of the Kwinana Freeway extension and the new Forrest Highway.

LandCorp Business Manager Industrial John Hackett said Pinjarra Industrial Estate was perfectly located for companies seeking suitable industrial land with easy access to Perth, the Peel and the South West.

“Small businesses, suppliers and contractors have been calling for suitable options for expansion and growth in the Peel region, and we’re helping to meet that growing demand at Pinjarra,” Mr Hackett said.

“With the new Perth to Bunbury Highway reducing travelling times, Pinjarra Industrial Estate is now even more attractive as a site for businesses keen to become established in a strategically located industrial area.

“Murray Engineering, a member of the international mining contractor Byrnecut Group, is the first major tenant and has completed development of its Pinjarra Workshop on a 5.5ha site.”

Pinjarra Industrial Estate will support a variety of business types and is particularly suitable for local business owners with small, medium or large factory and workshop requirements.

Mr Hackett said the new highway provided greater capacity for businesses to deliver materials and other services to the Peel and metropolitan areas and key centres along the highway.

“Faster road access should help to reduce freight costs. As the Peel and South West prepare for the emerging period of economic growth, any effort to contain costs and increase access to markets, clients and suppliers should increase competitiveness.”

Stage 1 currently offers 16 lots ranging in size from 2,097sqm to 8,662sqm.

When complete, the estate will cover 90ha and consist of approximately 50 lots of various sizes. All lots will be fully serviced with underground power, water, gas, sewerage and telecommunications.
