Darling Downs

Toowoomba is the gateway to the Darling Downs, including major agricultural production areas and resources projects, and boasts direct supply chain connections to South East Asia through Toowoomba Wellcamp Airport.  

South West Queensland and the Darling Downs produces around a third of Queensland's agricultural output and is a major area for cotton and beef. Agriculture, forestry and fishing, construction, health care and social assistance, retail and education and training all represent a significant portion of regional jobs.

Queensland is investing in an agricultural technology and logistics hub in Toowoomba, new feedlot facilities in Allora and a digital connectivity program across the Darling Downs. 

Wagner Corporation, is developing the centre at Toowoomba Wellcamp Airport. The hub will allow Darling Downs primary producers and exporters to re-enter international marketplaces. The expansion includes state-of-the-art large cold and freezer rooms and both temperature-controlled and ambient large transit areas.
