Webb Drive Industrial Estate in Townsville is an oasis for industry professionals looking for a northern base of business.

Townsville is rapidly becoming the next major Queensland city beyond Brisbane. A highly accessible regional center between Rockhampton and Cooktown right through to Mount Isa, Townsville is a prime location for businesses looking for connectivity and security of supply for northern and western Queensland.

And it’s here, in the heart of Townsville’s commercial hub, that you’ll find the wide roads, clean streets and modern buildings of the 285-hectare Webb Drive Industrial Estate.

Located at the foot of Mount St John on the site of the former St John Zoo, Webb Drive has become an ark of its own for many of Australia’s tier-one industry giants. Over 100 businesses call Webb Drive home, from transport and logistics companies to warehousing and distribution, heavy industry and government facilities to name a few.

The site is owned and managed by BM Webb Industrial Property, Townsville’s leading industrial property specialist. Rather than the traditional construct-then-sell method, BM Webb retains ownership of buildings long-term. Clients can choose between leasing existing facilities or working with BM Webb to design and construct a purpose-built space.

Breaking New Ground

Webb Drive Industrial Estate is the culmination of a journey that began in 1999. That year, BM Webb purchased the site to realize its vision of a landmark industrial estate, which would provide a home for industry professionals seeking high-end premises in a prime location.

Since that time, BM Webb has poured its 40 years of industry experience into making Webb Drive Industrial Estate the preferred location for businesses looking to operate in the Townsville region, creating long-term, hassle-free business partnerships.

The Mount St John location means close proximity to Townsville’s airport, CBD and retail precinct, as well as easy access to main arterial roads, port and railway.

Space To Grow

The work BM Webb pours into Webb Drive is firmly at odds with the tired and well-worn industrial estates of old. The company’s property management team takes care of all landscaping and building maintenance; the streets are green, tidy and exceptionally well-kept. Your business will always look its best, and you’ll be free to get on with the job.

Take a drive down any street in the estate and you’ll get a sense of the pride the team takes in its work. After all, BM Webb has a vested interest in keeping Webb Drive in prime condition.

By owning and managing all properties, BM Webb Industrial Property has the advantage of long-term relationships, experience and the ability to take care of maintenance quickly and efficiently.

The site itself is spacious enough to provide ample off-street parking for light and heavy vehicles, while wide, high-mass bitumen roads accommodate B-Double access throughout the estate.

BM Webb Group designs and constructs all properties via its own mechanical, construction, civil, steel fabrication and precast factory, and can accommodate specific requirements on a per-business basis. Sites are workshop friendly and include pallet racking floor loads. Gate entry sizing and warehouse clearances can be customized to suit tenants’ needs.

A Local Treasure

BM Webb Group has become a valued part of the Townsville community. Managing Director Brad Webb is steadfast in his support for the region’s under-privileged.

Webb Drive Industrial Estate is home to Food Relief NQ, which was established by Webb in 2002 to provide for those in need among the North Queensland community. During the establishment of the industrial estate, a purpose-built facility was provided to Food Relief NQ as an operational center, warehouse and distribution facility.

Today, Food Relief NQ is sponsored by around 20 local businesses and provides over 200,000 kilograms of food supplies to local charities and welfare agencies every year.
