Small businesses are the backbone of the Australian industry and are a vital player to the Australian economy. They’ve been a feature of our economic fabric for many decades. That’s only going to rise, especially on the Gold Coast where there has been a huge increase in the number of start-ups.The Gold Coast is considered the home of small businesses with over 50,000, of which 30% are homebased or mobile.
