The resources industry of the Pilbara and the Port of Port Hedland are the economic powerhouses of Western Australia.
Ensuring that the Port continues to grow is vital for the State’s future and for sustaining a thriving Port Hedland community.
Our members create jobs and support local businesses but also contribute to a range of health, education, training and environmental programs.
