Small Business Support

Small businesses are at the heart of the Ipswich economy and account for a large majority of registered businesses in the region. There are over 13,000 businesses that are registered in Ipswich, and a massive 8,000 of these are sole operators (micro-businesses), with many more classified as small businesses (less than 20 staff).

In 2020, Ipswich City Council became the first council in Queensland to sign on as a Small Business Friendly Council. This was reaffirmed in August 2025 when Council signed on to the Small Business Friendly Program for the second time.
