Australia’s first purpose built, end-to-end food and beverage manufacturing and education precinct - unlocking growth, accelerating innovation and creating a national blueprint for collaborative manufacturing. Turbine is a response to an industry-led desire to scale and innovate through accessing world-class services and advanced manufacturing infrastructure, to reduce cost, increase speed to market and increase global competitiveness. To be located at Sunshine Coast Airport, the Turbine Precinct will bring together a critical mass of expertise and capability that spans the entire value chain. This ecosystem will also include partnerships with research, education and training, and government organisations to support individuals and businesses not only located within the precinct, but also the broader industry in the region and beyond. Stage 1 of the Turbine Precinct will have a beverage focus and include a large-scale contract beverage facility; co-located beverage manufacturers; collaborative R&D centre, expertise and training hub; and hospitality showcase. The Precinct is expected to be operational late 2023.
