We need more businesses across the Barossa, Gawler, Light and Adelaide Plains to complete our 2026 Regional Business Survey before it closes on Sunday 13 September.
If you own, operate or manage a business anywhere in our region, we are asking you to set aside 20–25 minutes to tell us what is happening in your business. We want to understand current confidence levels, operating challenges, workforce pressures, investment plans and how businesses are feeling about the regional economy.
Strong participation is essential if the survey is to provide a reliable picture of business conditions across our region. Without responses from businesses of different sizes, industries and locations, important issues can be under-represented and it becomes harder to demonstrate the pressures facing our business community when priorities, services and investment are being considered.
We know there are many surveys circulating and that another request for your time may not be welcome. However, this survey is specifically focused on businesses across the Barossa, Gawler, Light and Adelaide Plains. The information you provide will help guide our work and give us stronger local evidence when advocating to governments, industry and service providers about what our region needs.
The regional findings are expected to be published in October 2026. Everyone who completes the survey can also enter the draw to win one of four $100 vouchers.
If you have not yet completed the survey, please take the time to do so before Sunday 13 September. If you have already responded, thank you, and please consider sharing it with another local business that should be represented.
