Business Data and Statistics
Our unique business advantages enable sustainable business and industry growth.
Over the past decade, we have revitalised our town centres and foreshore areas, created new hospitality and retail centres, progressed aged and health care facilities, and significantly upgraded our regional airport to international standards. The state-of-the-art Saltwater Busselton Performing Arts & Convention Centre is due to open early 2026.
We are now poised to capitalise on this transformative work and are expanding economic opportunities to accelerate our strong agribusiness, tourism, events and creative sectors and activate new activity in aviation, transport, renewable energy, technology, and healthcare industries.

The City has subscribed to the Commonwealth Bank of Australia's (CBA) economic data platform, CommBank iQ, a joint venture between CBA and analytics company, Quantium.
CommBank iQ is a foundational dataset of all CommBank transactions, which currently represents roughly 35% of all transactions in Australia. These transactions are then refined to only cover Australian consumer transactions and the data is scaled to be representative of the total market based on the latest Estimated Residential Population.
CBA have a refinement engine that ensures categorising and locating of businesses is presented accurately. The transaction data is then mapped to the City of Busselton's Local Government localities to determine factors such as visitor and resident spend.
CommBank iQ enables businesses and institutions to analyse economic behavioural trends, overcome challenges, and create better, more targeted products and services. The City has made this data available to local businesses in two formats below.
