Fortescue Metals Group Ltd, a prominent Australian metal mining and green energy company, recently convened a two-day meeting at the scenic Mandoon Estate winery nestled in Western Australia's Swan Valley. The event combined business discussions with a meaningful cultural team-building activity.

Mandoon Estate is a premier destination within the Swan Valley, offering award-winning wines, hand-crafted beers, and gourmet dining options. Its rich history dates back to the 1840s, and it showcases a blend of heritage charm and modern amenities. The estate is deeply rooted in Indigenous Noongar culture, fostering partnerships with local Aboriginal businesses to celebrate and preserve traditional customs.

For the Fortescue meeting, Mandoon Estate provided luxurious accommodations at the Maya Maya boutique hotel, overlooking the picturesque Swan River and vineyards. Business sessions took place in the Surveyors Rooms, complemented by dining experiences at Homestead Brewery. A standout feature was a cultural team-building activity led by respected Aboriginal Elder Dale Tilbrook, offering insights into Indigenous history, farming, and traditional foods.

This unique blend of business and culture exemplifies Mandoon Estate's commitment to delivering memorable experiences for corporate gatherings set against the backdrop of Western Australia's stunning natural beauty and rich heritage.

“Business events staged at Mandoon Estate greatly benefit from our capacity to provide quality on-site accommodation at Maya Maya, premium event and function facilities, intriguing art and history, along with award-winning wines and a range of dining options. When enhanced by inspiring cultural team-building activities, such as those offered through Dale Tilbrook, it’s easy to see why we continue to attract prestigious meetings, conferences and incentives to our Swan Valley Estate.” Andrew Pruyn, General Manager, Mandoon Estate
