Peel Development Commission

Western Australia’s Peel region is on the brink of exciting change. It is forecast that over the next two decades the region will experience a significant influx of people, attracted by the area’s abundant resources, picturesque environment and enviable lifestyle. By 2050, Peel is expected to rival the South West as one of the state’s most populous regions outside of Perth, with a projected population of 444,000. This increase in population will bring new vibrancy and prosperity to – as well as challenges for the community. The Peel Development Commission is embracing the challenge and has worked closely with more than 200 stakeholders to form a shared view of Peel’s future as a ‘progressive, prosperous and dynamic’ region. The PDC will work with CRC participants to ensure that the region’s future food facilities are developed in smart, sustainable ways.
