Moorabool council is lending a hand to businesses in the municipality as well as jobseekers, with a relaunch of its local business directory.
The council has relaunched its directory, Moorabool Localised, as part of its efforts to help local businesses with their COVID-19 recovery, as the municipality recovers from another harsh lockdown to contain the virus, which saw local businesses forced to close again.
The directory has a new feature, allowing business to advertise local jobs for free on the site.
Moorabool mayor Tom Sullivan said he hoped the directory would provide a central point for businesses and local people wanting to discover what is available.
“We’re hoping to create a one-stop-shop celebrating local businesses and local jobs for local people, and you need to be there to be discovered,” Cr Sullivan said.
“With more than 180 businesses now on board, we’re running an exciting competition to encourage more local businesses to promote themselves on Moorabool Localised.
“Moorabool Localised is for all Shire-based businesses big and small.
“Whether they are home-based, business to business, or business to consumer, we would hope to see every Shire business on the site, and their available jobs too.”
Cr Sullivan said businesses listed with the site by the end of October go into the draw to win a $415 local glamping and food package for two at The Garden of St Erth.
