CCCI Business Connections

The Collie Chamber of Commerce and Industry (CCCI) is thrilled to announce the successful completion of yet another highly informative Business Connections event. Supported by Workforce Australia Local Jobs South West on behalf of the Australian Government Department of Employment and Workplace Relations, the event brought together a diverse group of local businesses at the vibrant venue of the Crown Hotel Collie.

The primary focus of this engaging event was to foster dynamic leadership and support the growth of small businesses within our thriving community. The CCCI aimed to provide an interactive platform for constructive discussions and knowledge sharing, which was achieved through the participation of esteemed special guests from IPS Management Consultants, Colliecrete and local Member for Parliament, Jodie Hanns MLA.

“I’d like to congratulate the Collie Chamber of Commerce and Industry on the outstanding success of the Chamber Voucher program.  In my former role as CEO of the CCCI, I implemented the voucher system as a way of supporting local businesses.  Every dollar spent in local businesses is a dollar invested in the local community.  I’m proud to see this incredible milestone of $500,000 being injected into the local economy.” Jodie Hanns MLA

“We are thrilled to see the Collie Chamber Gift Voucher program reaching such a significant milestone. We extend our heartfelt appreciation to Dee O’Brien from South32 for the pivotal contribution that helped us achieve this remarkable milestone and wish to acknowledge Premier Coal for their substantial support, making up 44% of the total gift vouchers purchased between 2014/15 – 2022/23. Their commitment to the Collie Chamber Gift Voucher program showcases their dedication to both local businesses and the community,” announced Tara van Beuningen, Executive Officer of CCCI.

The CCCI extends a warm invitation to all businesses and individuals to be part of this exciting initiative and actively contribute to shaping the future of Collie. This event presents an invaluable opportunity to network, learn, and actively participate in the economic expansion of our community.

"Additionally, the event featured insightful guest speakers, who added immense value to the discussions. The event highlighted the collaborative spirit of our business community and the potential for innovative growth in Collie. We look forward to continuing these engaging initiatives that strengthen our local economy and foster meaningful connections." stated Tara van Beuningen.
