Business Opportunities

Want affordable land, great facilities and an uncompromised lifestyle for you, your family and your staff?  The Tamworth region’s got the lot, and more.

Located half-way between Sydney and Brisbane, Tamworth is the major business centre for the New England and North West region of New South Wales, and directly services a population basin of some 200,000.

While agribusiness remains a key industry base, the Tamworth region has a strong retail and professional services sector, along with light manufacturing, food processing, logistics, construction and tourism.

The aviation, equine and coal industries are identified regional growth sectors enjoying major competitive advantages. The region enjoys some of the best flying conditions in the world and is already home to a military flight training school, aeronautical college and major aircraft maintenance services. In 2008, the premier equine and livestock facility in the Southern Hemisphere opened for business in Tamworth. Large deposits of coal have also been discovered in the region, heralding significant infrastructure development and service provision opportunities.

Tamworth has a history of making it happen. Take our annual Country Music Festival.  Now rated one of the top 10 music festivals in the world, the event attracts over 50,000 visitors each year to some 2,100 shows performed by 750 artists and all without a formal organising committee. This unique event truly reflects the talent and skills of our community.

Breathe fresh air, be dazzled by stars in clear night skies and immerse yourself in a community brimming with spirit and pride. As a major regional centre, the Tamworth region can offer you and your staff an array of facilities and services to suit your every need, without the hassle and costs of metropolitan living.

Come and see what’s on offer.  Tamworth Region – Making it Happen.
