County launches business development tool

Red Deer County has launched its latest tool to generate business activity in the municipality. The business development tool is a unique website, which can be accessed by anyone interested in starting a business in the County.

The tool, which can be found under the Business and Lifestyle heading on the County website, shows available locations, local industry trends, demographic information, and valuable business links all in a one stop shop environment.

According to Director of Planning and Development Dave Dittrick, “The importance of business locators cannot be stressed enough. Red Deer County is committed to providing the best and most current information possible to assist in businesses in location selection.”

The business development tool will be a fixture of the recent economic development strategy unveiled by Red Deer County. Council approved the strategy in early 2017, and will continue to solicit feedback from the business community.
