Waimate district is a highly productive agricultural area with a mix of pastoral, cropping, dairy farming, fruit and vegetable growing.

Our major industries and biggest employers are linked to the land: farming, forestry and milk processing are all significant contributors to the local economy.

Waimate is 34 minutes from Timaru, and 41 minutes from Oamaru. Our town has excellent infrastructure and a pro-active council that is keen to encourage business expansion and employment.
