The review determined that there are 33 tier 1 suppliers located in South Australia, employing around 3,700 people. A further 719 companies in South Australia support the tier 1 companies, supplying a wide range of products and services, and employing 28,000 to 32,000 people. This is in addition to the 1,700 jobs with GM Holden Ltd in South Australia. The information derived from the automotive supply chain mapping analysis was obtained on a commercial in confidence basis, therefore I am unable to supply you with the requested list of companies.
