The results of the Warrnambool Business Confidence Survey will be revealed at the Mayor's Breakfast and City Briefing on Thursday, November 21.
"The breakfast is now an annual fixture on the business events calendar and along with the results of the survey, undertaken in partnership with Deakin University, we'll include a retrospective of the year so far and have a look at how 2025 is likely to pan out," Council's Manager Economic Development Steve Hoy said.
"From a business perspective, there have been challenges when it comes labour and key worker housing shortages.
"And the rising cost of living is also compelling people to carefully manage household budgets.
"However, we also know that Warrnambool's business community has proven to be innovative and resilient and we'll explore this through the business survey results.
"Another exciting aspect of this year's event is that it comes just a few days after the mayoral election on November 18, so this this will be one of the first official engagements for the mayor."
A light breakfast plus tea and coffee will be provided.
The annual Mayor's Business Breakfast and City Briefing will be held in the Lighthouse Theatre foyer on Thursday November 21 from 7.30am until 8.45am.
