ABS counts for June 2025 cover two statistical areas, Bankstown North and Bankstown South, and together they hold 5,297 businesses, up about 17% on June 2021. Transport, postal and warehousing is the largest group at about one in five, a category that includes freight, courier and delivery work. Construction follows at about 16%. Around 6 in 10 businesses have no employees, and roughly 1,400 turn over less than $50,000 a year. For those owners, a lean site and a well kept Google Business Profile will earn more than a big build. The 366 businesses turning over $2 million or more usually need fuller service pages and staff profiles.
