Giru is a small town in Queensland, Australia,
situated on the Haughton River 54 kilometres
(34 mi) south-east of Townsville.

The Invicta Sugar Mill was relocated from
Bundaberg to Giru in 1888. The Giru Post
Office opened by 1922. According to the 2011
census, the Giru area had a population of 627.

The Bruce Highway bypasses the town. Giru is
noted for the Invicta Sugar Mill, which is owned
by Wilmar Sugar. The company crushes 3.67
million tonnes of sugar cane annually, the
second largest amount in the Southern
Hemisphere after Victoria Mill in Ingham. There
is serious game fishing in the region, as the
barramundi and grunter are highly sought
after. There is a bowling club, and the main
source of accommodation is the Giru
International Hotel. The boat ramp is a fishing
hot spot and many people travel to fish there.
In September every year, the Giru Show is
held, offering activities such as food stalls,
homemade cake shops and show rides,
horse rides, and an animal farm, as well as a
display of several pieces of farming equipment.
