About Us

Lumenesse & Co is a social enterprise powered by Australia’s South West.

As the peak tourism body for the region, Australia’s South West works with hundreds of tourism businesses. We’ve seen first-hand the challenges faced by dedicated tourism operators and local governments: the juggle of time constraints, a lack of support in navigating the complex landscape of marketing and business development, and the frustration of not knowing where to turn to for reliable help.

Lumenesse & Co was born to address those pain points.

Our goal is to support the tourism industry throughout the South West by providing accessible access to expertise across marketing, product & business development, and destination management.

 With over 100 years of combined tourism experience across the team, we are here not merely as consultants but as empathetic partners. Our approach is one of understanding; of knowing our clients’ problems and providing a product to relieve your time and capacity constraints while delivering tangible results.

We believe that supporting individual businesses, associations, governments and shires will drive gains for the region as a whole.

Your guiding light in the tourism industry.
