When considering where to invest in commercial property, location is everything. Williams Landing, situated in Melbourne’s fast-growing western corridor has emerged as a thriving hub for businesses and investors alike. Its strategic location, robust connectivity, and substantial growth potential make it a compelling choice for those seeking strong returns on investment. Here’s why Williams Landing should be at the top of your list when considering where to purchase a commercial investment property.
Strategic location
Williams Landing is ideally located just 20 kilometers southwest of Melbourne’s Central Business District (CBD). As part of Wyndham City, one of the fastest-growing municipalities in Australia, it benefits from its proximity to major employment zones, residential areas, and the Melbourne CBD. Williams Landing as a suburb is home to a high proportion of white-collar workers, with ABS Census data (1) reporting that over 70% of the occupations of employed people which reside in Williams Landing, fall within the white-collar worker category. The suburb’s central position within the western growth corridor ensures easy accessibility for businesses looking to tap into a diverse and expanding customer and employment base.
Excellent connectivity
Connectivity is a key factor when considering where to purchase your commercial investment and Williams Landing excels in this area. The suburb is well-serviced by the Williams Landing train station, which offers frequent express services to Melbourne’s CBD. Williams Landing is also home to a major bus interchange which connects residents to the surrounding suburbs.
For road users, the suburb has direct access to the Princes Freeway, ensuring seamless connectivity to Melbourne and Geelong.
In addition to public transport and road networks, Williams Landing also offers excellent infrastructure for pedestrians and cyclists, making it a highly accessible location for both employees and customers.
Impressive growth potential
Wyndham City, the municipality in which Williams Landing is located in, has seen unprecedented growth in recent years. According to ABS data, there was a 46% increase in the number of businesses in Wyndham between 2020 –2023 (2). This surge in new businesses highlights the confidence investors and entrepreneurs have in the region’s potential, and Williams Landing is well-equipped to support future population and business growth with over 39,000 sqm (NLA) of completed office and retail space to date with more to come.
The population growth in Wyndham City further bolsters the case for investment. With a young and diverse population projected to continue expanding rapidly, demand for commercial services, retail, and office space is set to rise. This growing demand creates a dynamic environment for commercial property investors to thrive.
Thriving commercial and retail hub
Williams Landing has already established itself as a vibrant commercial and retail hub. The HomeCo. Williams Landing Shopping Centre serves as the cornerstone of the suburb’s retail precinct, featuring an array of dining, shopping, and lifestyle options. Additionally, over 230 businesses already operate out of the town centre, capitalising on its accessibility to major freeways and public transport, as well as the modern infrastructure within the suburb.
The presence of a thriving commercial hub not only boosts the area’s appeal but also ensures a steady stream of consumers and professionals, further enhancing the viability of new commercial investments. The combination of retail, office, and residential development creates a well-balanced ecosystem that supports sustained growth.
Conclusion
Investing in commercial property in Williams Landing offers a rare combination of location, connectivity, and growth potential. With its strategic positioning within Melbourne’s western corridor, excellent transport links and an already thriving commercial hub, the suburb provides an ideal environment for businesses to flourish. Add to this the impressive number of new business registrations in Wyndham City and the area’s booming population growth, it becomes clear that Williams Landing is more than just an emerging market—it’s a strategic investment opportunity with long-term promise.
