Victoria's largest fully master-planned business and employment hub
At more than 1.5 times the size of the Melbourne CBD - Merrifield's business and employment precinct is poised to become the State's new heartland of business activity. A new gateway for Melbourne business, Merrifield possesses in excess of 400 hectares of prime commercial and industrial land zoned to cater for a range business uses.
The success of Merrifield is its ability to create and deliver a superior base for business that will support the long-term economic future of businesses and the growing community within Melbourne's northern corridor. The primary aim is to create a flexible and diverse business destination that not only enhances the employment opportunities for local residents but will also attract a wide range of businesses and people to work in the wider northern region.
With such a unique opportunity to encourage and deliver a higher density of employment - including increased white collar employment - across a broader range of industries within the growth area, Merrifield has the potential to create in excess of 20,000 jobs to drive a new thriving local economy.
The proposed Merrifield City Centre will also provide the necessary complementary businesses and support services to accommodate both the commercial and personal daily needs in a growing employment precinct. Merrifield will also offer its residents, workers and visitors alike an inviting and contemporary work experience, set amongst an innovative landscape design.
