Frankston City is levelling up in a big way, and if you’re in the MedTech game, now’s the time to pay attention.
With a $1.1 billion redevelopment of Frankston Hospital almost complete, this place is fast becoming a healthcare and medical innovation powerhouse, and there’s room for industry players to get in on the action.
💉 Frankston’s industrial precincts are already buzzing with manufacturers, but the hospital expansion is set to supercharge demand for locally produced medical supplies, surgical tools, and game-changing health tech solutions. This means opportunities galore for businesses ready to step up and supply cutting-edge products.
🏥 The hospital transformation? A new 12-level clinical services tower, 130 extra beds, 15 state-of-the-art operating theatres, and expanded mental health, oncology, maternity, pediatrics, and emergency services. More space, more specialists, and more top-tier healthcare right on our doorstep.
🚀 And let’s talk about the numbers. Healthcare isn’t just growing here—it’s booming. It’s now Frankston City’s largest industry sector, employing over 11,000 people since 2021 and injecting $1.08 billion into the local economy. With an expanding hospital and an influx of primary, allied health, and specialized medical services, the sector is showing no signs of slowing down.
🌍 But what really seals the deal for Health and MedTech businesses? Location, location, location. Frankston City offers unparalleled access to major transport links, a skilled workforce, and a thriving ecosystem of industry professionals. It’s the perfect spot for MedTech manufacturers looking to design, develop, and distribute without the congestion and costs of other Melbourne hubs.
⚙️ Innovation is already in motion—just look at Hodei, one of our leading local manufacturers making waves in the medical space.
Located in the Carrum Downs Industrial Precinct for the past five years and in Frankston for seven, Hodei have become the largest supplier of single-use sterile baby bottles to hospitals.
“We are excited about the Hospital expansion and we hope we can supply to them being we are a local business doing great things in this space,” said Hodei Business Manager Alex Whyte.
🔬 And with new industrial developments opening up, there’s prime real estate available for businesses ready to join the MedTech boom. The future of medical innovation is happening right here. The only question is—who’s ready to be part of it?
