TURBINE has issued a final call for tenants as plans progress for Australia’s first purpose-built collaborative food and beverage manufacturing precinct on the Sunshine Coast.
The multi-million-dollar project is expected to move into construction in early 2026, with a builder to be formally announced soon, as revealed in a news release.
TURBINE CEO and Project Manager Andrew Eves-Brown said the development had reached a decisive stage, with limited spaces available.
“Momentum is building quickly. With planning well advanced and a clear pathway to operation, we are entering the final phase of tenant recruitment for what will be Australia’s first purpose-built collaborative food and beverage manufacturing precinct,” Eves-Brown said.
The precinct, located in the Sunshine Coast Industrial Park, has been designed to overcome barriers faced by small to medium-sized food and beverage manufacturers seeking to scale.
It will provide shared infrastructure, advanced equipment, opportunities for research collaboration, and an industry-led ecosystem to drive innovation and growth.
TURBINE noted that flexible leasing options remain, with tenancies ranging from 300m² to 4000m². Approved applicants may also be eligible for non-repayable funding to support tenancy fit-outs and equipment purchases.
“This is more than just a building – it’s a transformational ecosystem that will enable food and beverage manufacturers to scale, innovate and access export opportunities with confidence,” Mr Eves-Brown said.
The project is jointly funded by the Australian Government and Queensland Government.
