The Wimmera Development Association (WDA) is the peak economic development organisation for the Wimmera Southern-Mallee region.

Our role is to support and further develop existing local businesses, and promote economic development opportunities to investors within and outside the region.

We’re also a vital link between industry and government; lobbying for improved regional infrastructure, and attracting major investment projects to benefit the local economy. WDA is responsible for the implementation of the Wimmera Southern Mallee Regional Plan on behalf of the region.

The Association auspices a number of initiatives including 2010 Powercor Wimmera Business Awards, Leadership Wimmera, the Regional Skilled Migration Strategy and the Wimmera Manufacturing & Industry Group.

A vital link between industry and government, the Association consistently lobbies for improved regional infrastructure, and the attraction of major infrastructure projects to benefit the local economy.
