Rockford is the perfect location for businesses in any industry, and we want to be your new home. Greater Rockford is a beautiful location with a thriving economy and a dedicated workforce that is unparalleled. The Rockford Area Economic Development Council offers a number of incentives to encourage business relocation to our area.

Business Incentives

Our Incentive Zones target areas such as River Edge Zones and lots that are currently sitting empty, and offer benefits such as lowered property taxes or a rebate based on the improved value of a property after a renovation. You can also check out our resources for workforce development, flexible financing, and rebates for energy efficiency.

Relocating Your Business

In addition to bolstering the businesses that are already here, we aim to attract new businesses to the area. Rockford has a thriving engineering and manufacturing sector, making us the perfect choice for aerospace, advanced manufacturing, and automotive site selection, as well as auxiliary industries such as customer call centers.
