FOR over 34 years, the Greater Shepparton Business Centre on New Dookie Road has supported burgeoning and established businesses to access both the space and services they require to consolidate and succeed.

Offering a range of support services including business mentoring, workshops, training, information seminars and networking events, many of Shepparton’s most successful businesses have benefitted from the foundational support of the Business Centre.

Highlighting the strong uptake of mentoring services at the hub, Greater Shepparton Business development co-ordinator, Tricia Martinek said, “We offer young entrepreneurs, small and even well-established businesses, the opportunity to speak with a specialist for an hour, free of charge to gain direction for specific advice, support and/or mentorship.”

With the overarching aspiration to attract businesses to the region, the Greater Shepparton Business Centre provides 16 offices and five light commercial sheds to lease at a subsidised rate.

For operators who require space for as little as one day per week or even just a business address to get the ball rolling, virtual tenancy options also offer a practical bridge to success, particularly for those ventures relocating to the region or testing the waters.

With staff training rooms catering for up to 22 people and spacious boardrooms comfortably accommodating up to 12, the facilities on New Dookie Road are ideal for professional development opportunities that work to advance your concern.

The Greater Shepparton Business Centre is located at 70 New Dookie Road, with further information available by calling 03 5832 1100 or by accessing the centre’s website at sheppartonbusiness.com.au.
