Working together

FCTE has over 150 Fraser Coast business partners across a diverse range of sectors including tour operators, accommodation providers, restaurants, attractions, hire and charter suppliers and retail businesses.

All of these people, along with FCTE, have one thing in common - the desire to grow the Fraser Coast tourism industry. With a state-based focus on 'brand Queensland', coupled with increasing competition from nearby regions, there has never been a more important time for the region to work together.

Our FCTE focus is on growing partnership power and building 'brand Fraser Coast'. We invite you to join forces with FCTE and our growing partnership base. Together we can more effectively and efficiently raise the profile of the Fraser Coast as a visitor destination and raise visitation across the region.
