A share for local business

Penrith businesses recently heard how they can share in the opportunities created by the $95m Department of Defence Naval Guided Weapons Maintenance Facility at Orchard Hills.

Penrith Chamber of Commerce partnered with construction company St Hilliers this month to showcase the opportunities for local businesses looking to work on the $95m Department of Defence Naval Guided Weapons Maintenance Facility at Orchard Hills.

Chamber president Simon Gould said the event gave Chamber members and other local businesses guidance on preparing quotes for the project.

“Ensuring local businesses have access to their share of major infrastructure projects such as this, is an important function of the Chamber,” he said.
