Rupanyup and Minyip's future

Our goals and strategy for success

We are extremely proud of the success our community has achieved. We aspire to even greater economic growth and prosperity in the future. With a combination of both the skills and talent we have in our community, along with investors from outside who wish to share in this success, we will have what it takes to achieve our goals.

Our Goals:

1. Rupanyup and Minyip are to be maintained as fully functioning communities and economic centres, with steady increases in economic and social development and the provision of services, facilities and opportunities equal to that of urban centres.
2. Rupanyup and Minyip are to be recognised as serious players in the global economy.

Our Strategic advantages:

• We have a large, expanding capital base with world class enterprises.
• We have sound physical infrastructure as well as services and facilities that are continually being expanded and upgraded.

Our Strategy:

• Continual development of our existing core competencies in both primary, manufacturing and service activities.
• Continue to develop our diverse 'niche market' activities.
• Engage in further value adding activities including the marketing and process functions of the grain industry to enhance efficiency of our businesses and production, as well as ensure capital and profits remain in the community.
• Utilise the profit from our Community Bank™ branch to invest in commercially viable initiatives that enhance our district's economic prospects.
• Encourage external investment and skilled people to the district.
