Assignment detail

Going BIG: You and a group of investors are interested in developing a tourist destination including a ‘Big' tourist attraction, motel, café and a souvenir shop at a location in Australia. Examples of similar tourist attractions include the Big Merino in Goulburn and the Big Banana in Coffs Harbour.

The aim of this tourist destination is to provide an additional tourist experience for the tourists who already come into the Local Government Area (LGA). In order to do this successfully you need to ensure that the location you choose will support your business over the next 10 years.

Your minimum criteria are:

• significant tourism interest already in the LGA, and

• appropriate transport facilities for tourists to travel to your tourist destination.

These are the minimum criteria - you should identify additional criteria that you can use in making this business decision.
