Development of the PSEEI will focus on broadening and diversifying the commercial and business sectors of the region and increasing economic expansion, market base and international competitiveness of the Peel's agribusiness sector.
The three projects that comprise the PSEEI are the Peel Business Park Nambeelup, the Peel Water Initiative and the Peel Food Zone.
Each project serves as a catalyst for the transformation of the Peel region as a whole, especially in the industrial and food-related sector, as well as enhancing the region's strategic significance with regard to its overall economic output, productivity, employment and exports.
With financial input from both government and the private sector, the PSEEI will help meet the strategic imperatives necessary to ensure the continued development and success of WA.
