Industrial Site Development
The Northeast Region of Alabama offers convenient access to major Southeastern markets, including Birmingham, Atlanta, Nashville, and Memphis. Nearly 25 percent of the U.S. population is within 500 miles of the Gadsden Plus Region, while 35 percent of U.S. Fortune 500 headquarters are within a day’s drive. The region also provides access to major Eastern and Gulf Coast ports, connecting businesses to national and international markets.
Alabama offers a range of economic development incentives designed to support new job creation, capital investment, and business growth.
The Growing Alabama Act is an inventive mechanism allowing Alabama taxpayers to receive various tax credits (income, state, insurance, & utility) in return for providing cash contributions to local Economic Development Organizations.
The Alabama Jobs Act provides discretionary tax credits and cash rebates for opportunities bringing new net jobs and/or capital investment in State-defined targeted counties for growth.
